Downloading IBM Business Process Manager V8.5.7 Cumulative Fix 2016.12

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When you use IBM Process Designer V8.5.7 to model an error
  boundary event and select Catch Specific Errors in the error
  properties, specifying an error code is optional according to
  the IBM Knowledge Center documentation. However, you observe
  that when you do not specify an error code an incorrect
  validation error is shown (independent of what is specified as
  error mapping):
  
  "No error events that are thrown contain an error code that
  matches the error code specified for the '<event name>' catch
  event on the '<activity name>' activity."
  
  You can still successfully run the process containing this error
  boundary event.
