Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
    *                  Server V8.0 and V8.5 who configure          *
    *                  application resource references.            *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The "Target Resource JNDI Name"         *
    *                      fields on the "Resource references"     *
    *                      page of the Administration Console is   *
    *                      blank even though the resource          *
    *                      references are properly defined in      *
    *                      the application.xml and the             *
    *                      ibm-application-bnd.xml files.          *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The WebSphere Application Server code is looking for the
    "resRefBindings" element instead of the "resource-ref" in
    ibm-application-bnd.xml.  The "resRefBindings" element is
    not defined in the schema, but the "resource-ref" element
    is.  Therefore the "resource-ref" element is correct.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code has been updated to process the "resource-ref"
    element when reading the ibm-application-bnd.xml and to write
    the "resource-ref" element when creating the
    ibm-application-bnd.xml file.  For backwards compatibility,
    the code will continue to process "resRefBindings" in the same
    way that it now processes "resource-ref".
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 8.0.0.10 and 8.5.5.4.  Please refer to the
