  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The second parameter in message MIGR0590I is not substituted
    and is passed through simply as a placeholder when the message
    is issued. Here is what is looks like:
    MIGR0590I: The web
    module deployment descriptor in the xxxxxxx module of the
    yyyyyyyyyyy.war application was updated to version {2} so that
    it can be deployed in a mixed-cell environment.

    *                      migration if web.xml version is         *
    *                      missing.                                *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    If the web.xml does not have a version specified, the WebSphere
    Application Server deployment manager assumes the file is using
    the most recent version. As a result, when migrating and a mixed
    cell environment is created, the application cannot be installed
    because the newer deployment manager assumes the web.xml is a
    higher version than is supported on the older node.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The migration tooling now adds the max version supported by the
    mixed cell environment to the web.xml if the web.xml is missing
    version. It also fixes a message that was missing a parameter.
    
    The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix pack
    8.5.5.18 and 9.0.5.4. For more information, see 'Recommended
