Error description
Enabling Probe with Non-XML request type rule and Flow Control enabled, if INPUT is not consumed, might result in transaction error. Details: Non-XML request-type assumes that input gets consumed by a Transform Binary Action or by a convert-http action. If that is not the case, DataPower just appends INPUT to the output generated by rule processing (see slides 15-17 of this WSTE webcast: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27022979). Issue exists for Non-XML data getting passed thru and Flow Control enabled because INPUT has not been consumed for Non-XML request-type with Probe on. Problem does not exist on response rule. .
Local fix
If empty output is intended (eg. by NULL--Results--OUTPUT), add Transform Binary Action INPUT--xformbin(null.xsl)--NULL somewhere in the rule. This will avoid the transaction error. Copy of null.xsl: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:dp="http://www.datapower.com/extensions" extension-element-prefixes="dp" > <dp:input-mapping href="store:///pkcs7-convert-input.ffd" type="ffd"/> <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" /> <xsl:template match="/"> <!-- do nothing --> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
Problem summary
Affected is request rule processing with Non-XML request type and Flow Control enabled. With Probe enabled, a transaction might raise an error message.
Problem conclusion
Fix is available in 4.0.2.15, 5.0.0.10 and 6.0.0.2. For a list of the latest fix packs available, please see: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21237631
