APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When using an XSLT primitive in a WESB or BPM mediation not all
  the RuntimeExceptions thrown by the transform engine are
  properly caught by the primitive and handled through the firing
  of Fail terminal. These exceptions instead cause the flow to
  fail ungracefully.
  

Local fix

• n/a
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users of WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, WebSphere Process
  Server or Business Process Manager who use XSL Transforms
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  When an error occurs inside the XSL engine performing a
  transform through an XSLT primitive the expectation is that
  the 'Fail' terminal of the primitive would be fired and the flow
  continues. Some particular exceptions were not doing this and
  instead were causing the flow to terminate unexpectedly.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code was modified such that all runtime exceptions from
  the XSL engine are now handled and result in the 'Fail' terminal
  being fired.
  
  
  The code fix is targeted to be included in the following fix
  packs:
  
  7.5.1 Fix Pack 2 (v7.5.1.2)
  8.0.1 Fix Pack 2 (v8.0.1.2)
  8.5.0 Fix Pack 1 (v8.5.0.1)
