    JNI  method ''AdminAgentThread_getDeployMessage''. The Java

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    All users of IBM Integration Bus V10.0.0.4 using custom Java
    connectors.
    
    
    Platforms affected:
    z/OS, MultiPlatform
    
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    A regression introduced in IBM Integration Bus V10.0.0.4 means
    that message flow nodes using custom Java connectors cannot be
    deployed to integration servers. Custom Java connectors includes
    all connectors not shipped with the product, including IBM
    developed connectors on GitHub and user developed connectors.
    When a message flow node that uses a custom Java connector is
    deployed, the deployment is rejected with a
    NullPointerException:
    
    BIP3701E: A Java exception was thrown whilst calling the Java
    JNI  method ''AdminAgentThread_getDeployMessage''. The Java
    exception was ''java.lang.NullPointerException''. The Java stack
    trace was ''Frame : 0 java.lang.NullPointerException: null''
    
    There are a number of resource name changes between WebSphere
    Message Broker and IBM Integration Bus Version 9.0.  For details
