Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server V8.5                                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The schema name for Apache OpenJPA's    *
  *                      Object Model Mapping (ORM) extension is *
  *                      no longer valid.                        *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The schema name for OpenJPA's ORM extension feature has changed
  from www.apache.org/openjpa/ns/orm to openjpa.apache.org/ns/orm.
  This will cause any applications leveraging OpenJPA's XML
  extensions using the old URLs to fail.
  

Problem conclusion

• Applications utilizing OpenJPA's ORM extension must install this
  APAR and update their application's ORM descriptor headers to us
  the new schema name.
  
  For example, the following will no longer work:
  
  <entity-mappings
  xmlns="http://www.apache.org/openjpa/ns/orm/extendable"
      xmlns:openjpa="http://www.apache.org/openjpa/ns/orm"
      xmlns:orm="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      version="2.0">
  
  The schema address must now match the following:
  
  <entity-mappings
  xmlns="http://openjpa.apache.org/ns/orm/extendable"
      xmlns:openjpa="http://openjpa.apache.org/ns/orm"
      xmlns:orm="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      version="2.0">
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.3.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
