IT07295: RESUMESOFTSTOP BUSINESS PROCESS HAS INVALID XPORT-SMTP-MAILHOST SET

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The ResumeSoftStop business process sets an invalid
  xport-smtp-mailhost in the SMTP
  Send Adapter. When the business process tries to send an email
  message, it fails with invalid host.
  
  The ResumeSoftStop business process is a new process added in
  5.2.5.
  
  The problem is that the SMTP Send Adapter looks like this:
  
              <operation name="SMTP Send">
                   <participant name="SMTP_SEND_ADAPTER"/>
                   <output
  message="SMTP_SEND_ADAPTERInputMessage">
                    <assign to="xport-smtp-mailfrom"
  from="//mailfrom/text()"/>
                    <assign to="xport-smtp-mailhost"
  from="mysmtphost.ibm.com"></assign>
                    <assign to="xport-smtp-mailport">25</assign>
                    <assign to="xport-smtp-mailto"
  from="//mailto/text()"/>
                    <assign to="xport-smtp-mailsubject">Automated
  Terminate Notification</assign>
                    <assign to="." from="*"></assign>
                   </output>
                    <input message="inmsg">
                    <assign to="." from="*"/>
                   </input>
              </operation>
  
  The line:
  <assign to="xport-smtp-mailhost"
  from="mysmtphost.ibm.com"></assign>
  resolves to a null for xport-smtp-mailhost. The string
  mysmtphost.ibm.com is being interpreted as
  XPath and is resolved to a null.
  

Local fix

• Circumvention:
  Hardcode xport-smtp-mailhost in business process.
  

Problem summary

• The ResumeSoftStop system business process gets an invalid
  value for the xport-smpt-mailhost property.
  
  Users Affected:
  All
  
  Platforms Affected:

Problem conclusion

• The system business process ResumeSoftStop now assigns the
  xport-smpt-mailhost correctly.
