Problem summary

  ****************************************************************
  When an EJB-based JAX-WS service is installed with the
  Rational Application Developer "loose config" option, or
  installed in WebSphere Application Server with the "Use Binary
  Configuration" option, the following error might occur when
  the service is invoked:

  This exception would appear on the service side, not the
  client's.
  

Problem conclusion

• The JAX-WS runtime was fixed to create a correct J2EE name for
  the EJB bean that is the implementation of the JAX-WS service.
  This name is used by the EJB container when locating the bean.
  
  This APAR supercedes PM15201.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 7.0.0.17.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
