Error description

• While using a JAX-WS application, a LogConfigurationException
  error may occur.
  
  Here is an example error.  Note that the error is often found
  in the "Caused by" section of another error:
  
  com.ibm.wsspi.
  webcontainer.extension.WebExtensionProcessor
  createServletWrapper Error
  occured while preparing the servlet for initialization.
  java.lang.Exception: java.lang.
  ExceptionInInitializerError
  ...
  Caused by:
  org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: org
  apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException:
  org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: Class
  org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger does not implement
  Log
  
  This error will only occur if the JAX-WS application contains
  org.apache.commons.logging.* classes.
  
  In most cases, the error states
  "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger does not
  implement Log".   It is also possible that you will see the
  same message with a different Logger class.

  "org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger does not

  same message with a different Logger class.
  
  These symptoms indicate that the Logger provided in the
  customer application is interfering with the Logger used in
  the JAX-WS runtime.
  

Problem conclusion

• The Logger classes provided by the application interfere with
  the Logger classes required by the JAX-WS runtime.  The JAX-WS
  runtime packaging is changed to ensure that its Logger class
  is always used.  This change eliminates the problem.
  
  The same problem is fixed in the Version 7.0 WebSphere
  Application Server by PM09877.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 6.1.0.33.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
