PM09660: CEI EVENT LOOKUP ISSUE FROM EXTERNAL WEBSPHERE APPLICATION SERVER CLIENT

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

Lookup of Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) emitter factory and
related components from an external WebSphere Application
Server client fails:

Could not invoke method getObjectInstance on object of
type
com.ibm.ws.naming.urlns.genericURLContextFactory.
parm0=java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)

Therefore no CBE is emitted from the client app to the CEI
infrastructure.

Code change in com.ibm.events.client_6.1.0.jar needed.

Local fix

Explicitely define the provider URL and the initial context
factory in the client application:

Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
  "com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "corbaloc:iiop:localhost:2809");
Context ic = new InitialContext(env);

A warning/runtime exception will still be logged but the CBE
will be correctly emitted.

Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
*                  Server V6.1 and V7.0 that also have Common  *
*                  Event Infrastructure (CEI) deployed and     *
*                  want to use the Common Event                *
*                  Infrastructure (CEI) client API from the    *
*                  WebSphere Application Server client.        *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Common Event Infrastructure fails       *
*                      when run from the WebSphere             *
*                      Application Server client.              *

****************************************************************
The following error occurs when trying to use CEI with the
Application Server client:

          Could not invoke method getObjectInstance on object

com.ibm.ws.naming.urlns.genericURLContextFactory.

Caused by: javax.naming.ConfigurationException: There is no
name space

ssable(genericURLContextFactory.java:90)
 at
com.ibm.ws.naming.urlbase.UrlContextFactory.getObjectInstance(Ur
lContext Factory.java:73)

This happens because the CEI client tries to lookup an
Enterprise Java Bean (EJB) in the local context . The local
context being the context of the Application Server client
context which did not contain any EJBs.

Problem conclusion

Now CEI checks if the local context is the same as the context
of the server in which the CEI EJB is bound.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 6.1.0.35 and 7.0.0.13. Please refer to the
