Local fix

Problem summary

• USERS AFFECTED:
  Websphere Commerce  Developer Edition users with v7.0.0.4
  
  PROBLEM ABSTRACT:
  FileNotFoundException error is encountered when trying to enable
  feature pack on WebSphere Commerce Developer editions.
  
  BUSINESS IMPACT:
  High- Enablement for feature pack will not work.
  
  RECOMMENDATION:
  

Problem conclusion

• PROBLEM CONCLUSION
  There is no functional impact due to the exception and it can be
  safely ignored.
  
  Prior to fix pack 4 the exception occurred but the calling code
  ignored it and the stack trace was not printed.  One of the Ant
  tasks used during feature enablement attempts to parse a file
  <WC_InstallDir>\instances\wcs_instances.  This file exists in
  the WebSphere Commerce runtime server but not in WebSphere
  Commerce Developer. Starting in WebSphere Commerce V7 fix pack 4
  the calling code no longer ignored such exceptions causing the
  stack trace to be printed in the enablement log.  IBM has
  resolved the issue by updating the underlying code such that it
  confirms that the file exists before calling the code to parse
  it, thus avoiding the exception.
