APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • If a deploy fails while copying the EAR to a temp directory,
    due to HFS/zFS problems, the following message is written to the
    wsadmin log:   'WASX7116E: Cannot copy file'
    This is insufficient for debugging the problem.  The code will
    be altered to write out the original IOException and message.
    For example:  java.io.IOException: EDC5124I Too many open files,
    which would suggest the customer review the MAXMMAPAREA setting
    or MAXFILEPROC setting for the file system.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
    *                  Server V7.0, V8.0, and V8.5                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If a deploy fails while copying the     *
    *                      EAR to a temp directory, due to some    *
    *                      IO problems, the following message is   *
    *                      written to the wsadmin log:             *
    *                      'WASX7116E: Cannot copy file'.  It is   *
    *                      insufficient for debugging the problem. *
    ****************************************************************
    The wsadmin code will provide additional debugging statement to
    display the original IOException caught from different wsadmin
    methods and write to wsadmin log file to help debug any problem
    that is caused by Java IO error.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The APAR will enhance wsadmin code to add additional
    debugging statements to display the original IOException
    caught from different wsadmin methods and write to wsadmin log
    file.
