PM64158: BATCH ADAPTER FAILS WHEN USING RELATIVE PATH TO EXECUTE SCRIPT

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After upgrading from 8.1.0.2 to 8.1.0.5 with Interim Fix 2, a
  map that uses a batch script with a relative path fails but
  using an absolute path is successful.  The relative path
  command is successful when using 8.1.0.2.
  

Local fix

• WTXCQ - WTX00040658
  PVB / PVB
  Circumvention: Do not use relative path
  

Problem summary

• Users Affected:
  WebSphere Transformation Extender customers using batch adapter
  and relative paths
  
  Problem Description:
  Relative path is not resolved correctly when using the
  batch/shell adapter if the relative path consists of the sub
  directory and the script name
  
  Platforms Affected:
  All
  

Problem conclusion

• Correct code in the adapter to properly construct the absolute
  path for the script execution. The relative path is relative to
  the map directory
  
  Delivered in:
  8.3.0.5, 8.4.0.3
