APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Remove unused log4j-core-2.11.0.jar from specific web services
    deployment.
    

Local fix

  • Remove the unused JAR.
    

Problem summary

  •  The jar file: log4j-core-2.11.0.jar was
    inadvertently added to the Specific Web Services deployment
    in 8.6 fix pack 1. This jar file is not used, so needs to be
    deleted.
    

Problem conclusion

  •  This is fixed in Content Manager 8.7
    

Temporary fix

  •  Customers can delete this file directly from
    their Web Services deployment as a solution until the fix is
    applied. As this jar file is not used, deleting it directly
    has no impact to web services. File may be found in locations
    similar to these: /usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/
    AppSrv02/installedApps/test001n1Cell01/cmwebsvc.ear/
    CMBSpecificWebService.war/WEB-INF/lib/log4j-core-2.11.0.jar or
    C:\ibm\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv02\installedApps\
    TestNode02Cell\cmwebsvc.ear\CMBSpecificWebService.war\WEB-INF\
    lib\log4j-core-2.11.0.jar
