IY94972: PDWEBPI - REDIRECT (302) FROM AN EAI APPLICATION CAUSES IHS CORE

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• IHS 6.1
  RHEL 4.4
  6.0.0.4
  
  PDWebPI on IHS/RHEL with an EAI on WAS 6.1/Windows
  
  Sending a redirect (302) from the EAI application causes the IHS
  process to dump core.
  
  ** this problem does not occur if PDWebPI is removed from the
  picture, i.e. commenting the following out of httpd.conf:
  
  #LoadModule pdwebpi_module
  /opt/pdwebpi/plugin/lib/libpdwpi-ihs20.so
  #PDWebPIServerId /var/pdwebpi/sm/proxy.sm
  #PDWebPIVHostId saltam.hursley.ibm.com
  #PDWebPIPostProcessURL /PDWebPIPostProcess
  
  from PDWebPI L3:
  
  The crash  doesnt happen with only the Websphere plugin is
  configured.  The crash  doesnt happen with only the Webpi
  plugin is configured and the eai app run locally. It seems to be
  an interaction between the Websphere plugin and the webpi
  plugin.
  
  PMR 27819,499,000
  
  APAR opened at teh request of PDWebPI L3...
