Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users.                              *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The jcicsxClient-1.0 and                *
    *                      jcicsxServer-1.0 Liberty features will  *
    *                      not install in a Liberty JVM server     *
    *                      with the servlet-5.0 (Jakarta EE9) or   *
    *                      higher feature installed.               *
    ****************************************************************
    When enabling a Liberty JVM server with the jcicsxServer-1.0
    feature installed in CICS, or when starting a local Liberty
    server with the jcicsxClient-1.0 feature installed whilst also
    using the servlet-5.0 (Jakarta EE9) feature, the Liberty server
    will fail to enable the jcicsxServer-1.0 or jcicsxClient-1.0
    feature with the following message:
    
    CWWKF0033E: The singleton features servlet-5.0 and servlet-3.1
    cannot be loaded at the same time.  The configured features
    servlet-5.0 and cicsts:jcicsxServer-1.0 include one or more
    features that cause the conflict. Your configuration is not
    supported; update server.xml to remove incompatible features.
    

Problem conclusion

  • CICS has been updated so that the jcicsxServer-1.0 feature will
    install with servlet-5.0 (Jakarta EE 9) or servlet-6.0 (Jakarta
    EE 10) features.
    
    There is a new jcicsxClient-2.0 feature available from the
    Liberty Repository.  This is compatible with Jakarta EE 9 and
    Jakarta EE 10.
    
    To use the new jcicsxClient-2.0 feature you need the fix for the
    following issue:
    https://github.com/OpenLiberty/open-liberty/issues/31741
    
    This is part of fixpack 25.0.0.7.
    
    When using the jcicsxClient-2.0 feature locally, a warning
    message with text "CDI container not available" may be written
    to messages.log.  This message does not affect the functionality
    of JCICSX and can be ignored.  This is being investigated in
    https://github.com/OpenLiberty/open-liberty/issues/32897
