APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When you try to open an exposed process value (EPV) in the
    Process Admin Console by selecting Admin tools > Manage EPVs,
    the EPVs do not open and you receive the following message:
    
    "Illegal group reference"
    

Local fix

  • Remove dollar ($) sign from their Exposed Process Value (EPV)
    description.
    

Problem summary

  • This issue occurs if an EPV description contains certain
    specific characters, such as the dollar sign ($). These
    characters cause the EPV to be evaluated as a Java regular
    expression, causing the failure and message.
    
    PRODUCTS AFFECTED
    IBM Business Process Manager (BPM)
    IBM Business Automation Workflow
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix that prevents the EPV from being evaluated as a Java
    expression will be available in a future release of IBM Business
     Automation Workflow.
