APAR status

    out of the console

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
    *                  Server V7.0 and V8,0                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: EAR files are not deleted from wstemp.  *
    *                      Separate workspaces are created         *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    When the portlet deployment descriptor is viewed in the
    administrative console and then the ear file is getting
    updated, the ear file  is not removed from wstemp after logout.
    

Problem conclusion

  • There was a problem in PortletDescriptorView.java:
    the call to getApplicationContents used
    workspace.getSessionId() and it should have been using
    workspace.getUserName().
    With the code change, it now uses the workspace that the rest
    of the console is using rather than opening a new one that
    doesn't get deleted.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 7.0.0.23 and 8.0.0.3.  Please refer to the
