Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
*                  Server V8.0 and v8.5.5 Migration Tooling    *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The generated jython script for         *
*                      installing the application is missing   *
*                      target information. The WASPostUpgrade  *
*                      log is showing a SaveFailureException   *
*                      when the ear is being expanded.         *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
An archive in the application contains an absolute path based
on the root directory.  In addition the userid running the
migration does not have permission to create or write to the
root directory.  This is causing the SaveFailureException,
which then causes the code to skip over determining the server
and cluster targets of the application, which causes the
jython script to be incomplete.

Problem conclusion

In release v8.0, ejbs in WARs were introduced.  Thus the
archives in the WEB-INF/lib directory were assigned their own
flag for controling whether they should be expanded when the
EAR is expanded.  Migration code did not know about this
change and began processing all those WEB-INF/lib archives
which led to this error.  Solution was to add this additional
flag to skip expanding archives in the WEB-INF/lib directory.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 8.0.0.11 and 8.5.5.5.  Please refer to the
Recommended Updates page for delivery information:
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980

Temporary fix

Grant temporary permission to the migration userid to be able
to create and write to the root directory.  Or determine the
absolute path(s) in the archive and have a userid with
permission create them and give access to the migration userid.
