ZZ00685: USING INTERNET EXPLORER BROWSER, PROJECT SWITCH DETAILS CAN GET REFRESHED INTERMITTENTLY CAUSING LOSS OF FUNCTION IN OFFERINGS.

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• It seems that we can logon and use a couple of the offerings
  (without submitting) and then we hit the problems.
  When checking the logs even though the errors are different in
  the ICO UI we see the same messages, a HTTP 401 unauthorized
  message. We get this even if we have only been logged on for 2
  or 3 minutes.
  

Local fix

•    We have removed a project mapping check, which is used to
  map the project selected in the UI with the project details
  sent from the request through BPM. Incase of Chrome/FireFox,
  the project details with BPM are refreshed on project switch in
  the UI and the offerings can be invoked immediately without any
  errors. Incase of IE, these details are refreshed with new
  project after a certain period of time and post that the user
  is allowed to invoke offerings under that project. So, to
  bypass the wait time for the token to get refreshed, we removed
  the project mapping check. The user validation checks are
  intact, it is only the project mapping check that we have
  bypassed.
  

Problem summary

•                     defect in the UI code for IE browser, Fixed
  that and delivered in 2506
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
