Error description
WSVR0661W was introduced by PH05460, but we always see it if we install additional language option. For example, in the output of versionInfo command, we see the following output in the env where the language option is installed. ---- Optional Languages Japanese ---- In the osgi console, we will see the following bundle state is "INSTALLED" and this results in WSVR0661W. --- osgi> ss 148 INSTALLED com.ibm.ws.security.crypto.nls.ja_7.0.0 --- The jar file surely exists. # ls -l /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer85ND/plugins/nls/eclipse/plugins/ | grep security -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 635 Jul 18 13:19 com.ibm.ws.security.crypto.nls.ja.jar Since WSVR0661W starts to happen just after the application of FP16 in every environment where the language option is installed, it should be suppressed if it's harmless.
