PK78654; 7.0.0.3: dualmetadataloaderimpl reads incorrect server.xml. results in

Download Description

PK78654 resolves the following problem:

ERROR DESCRIPTION:
When starting a web services application, the engine might report this error to the Java™ Virtual Machine (JVM) log:

DualMetaDataLoade E loadWebContainerPorts could not find any http or https ports.

LOCAL FIX:
N/A

PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
Developers and administrators of IBM WebSphere Application Server V7 web services that are installed on web servers.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
The message "DualMetaDataLoade E loadWebContainerPorts could not find any http or https ports" might appear in the JVM log.

RECOMMENDATION:
Install a Fix Pack which includes this APAR.

When a web services application is started, the message "DualMetaDataLoade E loadWebContainerPorts could not find any http or https ports" might appear in the application server's JVM log file. However, when the web service is invoked, no problems are observed and it works as expected.

The web services runtime might issue the false error message if the application is installed on both a web server and an application server. This configuration is valid.

Note that the message could indicate a real problem if the application server where the web service is installed is somehow misconfigured, or the web service is installed on a web server only (which is not a valid configuration).

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
The message can be prevented from appearing in the JVM log by setting the com.ibm.ws.webservices.searchForAppServer property to true. The default value is false. For more details on how to perform this task, refer to the article "Java virtual machine custom properties" in the Information Center for your operating system.

This issue was fixed in V6.0.2 and V6.1 by PK69577.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fixpack 7.0.0.5. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information:
