Error description
Problem mapping resource references to resources The data in the resource-ref tag in application.xml is not properly mapped to the the data in the resource-ref tag of ibm-application-bnd.xml.
Local fix
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.
