Error description

  • Data bindings are not generated while the adapter is being
    installed in IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) V8.0.1.2 and
    V8.5.0.x. This issue occurs when the .ear file is included
    with a process app or the Service Deploy feature is used.
    
    The installation will succeed without errors but the data
    binding for the adapter is not generated, which leads to
    runtime errors in the log files that are similar to the
    following errors:
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException
        at com.ibm.j2ca.sap.SAPInteraction.doExecute
           (SAPInteraction.java:97)
        at com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIInteraction.execute
           (WBIInteraction.java:522)
        at com.ibm.ws.sca.binding.j2c.J2CMethodBindingImpl.invoke
          (J2CMethodBindingImpl.java:1204)
    
    These errors occur because the installation process refers to
    a missing binding class that should be generated during
    deployment time. The class name depends on what is set for the
    data binding of the import or export.
    
    
    java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
    com.ibm.xmlns.prod.websphere.j2ca.sap.
    sapbapigetdetail.MySAPGetdetailDataBinding
     at java.lang.Class.forNameImpl(Native Method)
     at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:213)
     at com.ibm.ws.sca.binding.j2c.handler.J2CImportHandler$1.run
        (J2CImportHandler.java:261)
    

Local fix

  • There is not a workaround if the adapter needs to be included in
    a snapshot. If it is being installed as an EAR then you
    should generate the ear from IID.
