PK91951: Wrong WSDL file is returned if there are multiple applications deployed with the same display-name using Application Editions

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

In cases where there are multiple applications deployed to
a WebSphere Application Server and the applications have
the same application display-name as defined in the
application.xml, such as the case where Virtual
Enterprise application with different editions are
used, attempting to retrieve the WSDL file associated with one
of the applications may result in the wrong WSDL file being
returned. This might cause an "Error 404: SRVE0190E: File not
found"

Local fix

Stop WebSphere Application Server
Delete the old wsdl from the wscache
Start WebSphere Application Server

****************************************************************
The WebSphere Application Server runtime uses a cache to store
the WSDL and annotated classes associated with an application.
The cache naming convention includes the application's
display-name in it's path.

An application's display-name is not guaranteed to be unique
among applications.  The result is that if two applications
with the same display-name are installed, there is only one
cache associated with both applications.  Therefore, the wrong
WSDL file or annotated classes may be accessed for one of the
applications.

When the wrong WSDL file or annotated classes are used, the
customer's application may fail in unpredictable ways.

Problem conclusion

The Web Services code has been changed to guarantee that each
application has a unique cache.  The cache naming convention
now uses the application name, rather than the display name.
The unique caches guarantee that the correct WSDL file and
annotated classes are accessed.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix pack 7.0.0.7.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
