Error description

  • In an environment with WebSphere Commerce 7.0 with Feature Pack
3 or higher feature pack level, SitemapGenerate is invoked with
a catalogId parameter. The SitemapGenerate process fails with a
ClassCastException such as the example which follows below:

[4/16/12 17:07:53:054 EDT] 000000ab SystemErr     R
java.lang.ClassCastException: [Ljava.lang.Object; incompatible

Local fix

  • Run SitemapGenerate by only passing the storeId and no
catalogId.
  It will generate the sitemap for the master catalog
corresponding to the store specified.

  If its any other sales catalog, then the workaround will be to
disable SEO

Problem summary

  • USERS AFFECTED:
All WebSphere Commerce 7.0 Feature Pack 3 or higher users who
use SEO and SitemapGenerate.

PROBLEM ABSTRACT:
ClassCastException occurs when running SitemapGenerate with
catalogId parameter when FEP3/FEP4 SEO is enabled

BUSINESS IMPACT:
Unable to generate a sitemap for the specified catalog

RECOMMENDATION:

Problem conclusion

  • The iFix will resolve the ClassCastException to allow the
SitemapGenerate job to complete properly.
