APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Deploying a BPEL module that includes a process instance
  migration specification always fails when it is deployed with
  the BPEL module it's being migrated from if both BPEL modules
  refer to the same shared library, even if there is nothing in
  the process instance migration specification because there are
  no differences between the two BPEL processes. The process
  instance migration specification does not contain errors.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• The BPEL process comparison component, which the Process
  Migration Specification editor uses and which is used during
  deployment, compares WSDL references by computing an ID for each
  object.
  
  This ID includes the path to the parent project that contains
  the file. If a WSDL is in a shared library, during deployment
  this library is copied, which causes a difference to be reported
  in the migration specification and the deployment fails.
  In Integration Designer, the migration specification does not
  report the difference because the parent project for the WSDL is
  the same for both versions of the process.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available for IBM BPM Advanced V8.5.5.0 that updates
  the BPEL comparison component to omit the parent project path
  for WSDL files that are referred to because it is irrelevant to
  run the process. As a result there are no false changes to
  report.
