    ****************************************************************
    The following error is be seen:
    The function createDataSourceAtScope in AdminJDBC.py (at
    C:\IBM\WebSphere9\AppServer\scriptLibraries\resources\JDBC\V70\)
    calls
    the function AdminUtilities.convertParamListToString at line
    1307.
    AdminUtilities.py (at
    C:\IBM\WebSphere9\AppServer\scriptLibraries\utilities\V70) does
    not
    contain a method convertParamListToString, and
    createDataSourceAtScope
    therefore fails.
    ...
    This fix adds the method back into AdminUtilities.py
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

  • As a workaround until the fix is published, the following code
    can be added to the bottom of AdminUtilities.py:
    
    # convert param list [-param1, value1, -param2, value2, ...] to
    def convertParamListToString(paramList):
        stringParam = "["
        for param in paramList:
            stringParam = stringParam + param + " "
        stringParam = stringParam + "]"
        return stringParam
    #endDef
