Rational Software Architect Interim Fix 1 for 8.0.4.2
Rational Software Architect for WebSphere Software Interim Fix 1 for 8.0.4.2

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If a Dynamic Web Project with the Server Side Technology Facet
  is published to a WebSphere Application Server version 6.1 or
  7.0 that only has the Web 2.0 Feature Pack version 1.0.x.x or
  only has Web 2.0 Feature Pack version 1.1.0 then a publishing
  failure will occurs.  A runtime error such as the following may
  occur:
  
  [11/07/07 15:57:36:984 JST] 00000021 servlet E
  com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.servlet.ServletWrapper
  run [Servlet Error]-[class java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
  com.ibm.websphere.rpcadapter.RPCAdapter]:
  java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: class
  java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
  com.ibm.websphere.rpcadapter.RPCAdapter
  
  This error only happens on standalone versions of WebSphere
  Application Server. It will not occur on a WebSphere Application
  Server test environment.
  
  Workaround: Install both versions of the Web20 feature pack
  (1.1.0 and 1.0.1.1) or put all of the below JARs in WEB-INF/lib
  
  ?WAS70_install_path?/web2mobilefep_1.1/optionalLibraries/RPCAd
  apter/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
  
  
  ?WAS70_install_path?/web2mobilefep_1.1/optionalLibraries/RPCAdap
  ter/retroweaver-rt-2.0.jar
  
  
  ?WAS70_install_path?/web2mobilefep_1.1/optionalLibraries/RPCAdap
  ter/RPCAdapter.jar
  
  ?WAS70_install_path?/web2mobilefep_1.1/optionalLibraries/JSON4J/

  If a Dynamic Web Project with the Server Side Technology
  Facet is published to a WebSphere Application Server version
  6.1 or 7.0 that only has the Web 2.0 Feature Pack version
  1.0.x.x or only has Web 2.0 Feature Pack version 1.1.0 then
  a publishing failure will occurs.
  

Problem conclusion

• Server Side Technology has 1 facet, however it is associated
  with 2 WebSphere Web 2.0 Feature Packs.  Since both feature
  packs are associated with the facet the validation framework
  requires both. The framework requires ALL feature packs for
  a given project.  It essentially does an AND operation.
  However, with v1.1.0 of the Feature Pack, co-existence of
  both versions is permitted, so an "OR" operation is needed.
  The code was changed to allow the operation to be treated as
  an OR.
  
  The fix for this APAR is included in Rational Application
  Developer v8.0.4.
