Error description
Data bindings are not generated while the adapter is being installed in IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) V8.0.1.2 and V8.5.0.x. This issue occurs when the .ear file is included with a process app or the Service Deploy feature is used. The installation will succeed without errors but the data binding for the adapter is not generated, which leads to runtime errors in the log files that are similar to the following errors: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.ibm.j2ca.sap.SAPInteraction.doExecute (SAPInteraction.java:97) at com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIInteraction.execute (WBIInteraction.java:522) at com.ibm.ws.sca.binding.j2c.J2CMethodBindingImpl.invoke (J2CMethodBindingImpl.java:1204) These errors occur because the installation process refers to a missing binding class that should be generated during deployment time. The class name depends on what is set for the data binding of the import or export. java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.ibm.xmlns.prod.websphere.j2ca.sap. sapbapigetdetail.MySAPGetdetailDataBinding at java.lang.Class.forNameImpl(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:213) at com.ibm.ws.sca.binding.j2c.handler.J2CImportHandler$1.run (J2CImportHandler.java:261)
Local fix
There is not a workaround if the adapter needs to be included in a snapshot. If it is being installed as an EAR then you should generate the ear from IID.
