IO13144: WEBI 1.0.4 : DOCID URLS FAIL TO DISPLAY THE CONTENT, IF THE GIVEN DOCID URL IS NOT THE FIRST URL USED IN THE WEBI SESSION.

Download IBM WEBi Version 1.0.4 Fix Pack 3

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• WEBi 1.0.4 introduced the capability to open WEBi from a custom
  application.
  This includes the secondary capability to open documents with an
  IBM WEBi viewer from a custom application. This is done via
  "docId" URLs. In the implementation of this capability, however,
  there is a defect, that manifests itself in certain
  circumstances; the defect makes it such that any second-in-time
  URL of this kind, third-in-time URL of this kind, etcetera (that
  is, any valid URL of this kind, that is subsequent to the
  first-in-time URL of this kind) fails to display the content.
  (The first-in-time URL of this kind does successfully result in
  the display of the content).
  
  If one logs off via WEBi, and then retries the valid (but
  initially failing) URL, but this time as the first-in-time URL,
  then successfully results in the display of the content.
  
  URLs of this form are :
  
  ...wc_layout=viewer&wc_docIds=["document_ID1"]&wc_action=view
