Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IBM WebSphere Application Server Version * * 8.5.5 and 9.0 Traditional Profile users of * * the SSL Channel * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The SSL Channel may throw a * * java.lang.NumberFormatException when * * using useProxyEndpointInformation * * without defining a proxy * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** If the SSL Channel custom property "useProxyEndpointInformation" is enabled, but the channel is not provided any proxy endpoint connection information, the channel may throw a number format exception such as: [8-5-17 15:08:52:451 CEST] 00000117 HttpOutboundC 1 Exception caught in oConn.connect attempt:java.lang.Number FormatException: null at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:466) com.ibm.ws.ssl.channel.impl.SSLConnectionLink.connect (SSLConnectionLink.java:1063)
Problem conclusion
The SSL Channel was modified to account for configurations where the property is enabled but no proxy is defined. In this case, if no proxy hostname is provided, the proxy's peer connection information is utilized. This is functionally equivalent to the custom property being disabled. If a proxy hostname is provided, but the port is not, the proxy hostname is updated and the port will be defaulted to port 80. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.13 and 9.0.0.5.
