PK83142: MIGRATION: INVALID REFERENCES IN MIGRATED DATA THROWS EXCEPTION WHEN MENUS ARE RENDERED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• An invlaid m_referenceKey on content items causes content to
  point to the correct reference by ID, but the worng reference by
  name.
  
  After migrating the content, the content calls the working
  component when rendering.
  

Local fix

• Remove the reference from the content item.
  Resave the items
  Add the reference back to the item.
  Save the item.
  
  Content should reference new item now
  
  *note this would need done on the target server
  

Problem summary

• Lee Berry isolated the problem to ComponentReferenceMatch.java
  and ComponentReferenceMatcher.java.  These changes stripped the
  invalid references from the data and corrected the problem.
  

Problem conclusion

• The invalid references appear to have been a latent bug from
  5.1.  When customers would migrate their data to 6.0.1.x or
  6.1.0.x, these invalid references would interfere with the
  previewing or rendering of content items with a reference to
  these components with the invalid reference key.
  

Temporary fix
