Error description

• The IEHS War that is shipped in 6.1.0.27 and 6.1.0.29 is
  mot compatible with other OSGi applications.
  
  The IEHS War uses Eclipse 3.0.1 (very old).   Launching
  this OSGi instance depends on setting System properties and
  using singleton classes (could be URLStreamHandlerFactory) that
  will cause conflict if the server launches other OSGi
  instances for other web applications.  For example, our product
  runs on WebSphere Application Server V6.* and launches a private
  
  OSGi instance (3.2.2) as our runtime engine.  If Our OSGi
  launches before your 3.0.1 OSGi, the IEHS will fail to start
  with the following error:
  
  [8/23/07 18:06:37:869 CDT]  0000002a IEHS          E
  CWLHS0004E:

  The IEHS war packaged in the base Application Server V6.1 will
  conflict with other Eclipse applications running on Application
  Server or other Eclipse applications running on the same machine
  as Application Server V6.1.

  ****************************************************************
  The IEHS administrative console help system must be updated to
  allow for multiple bundles to be loaded, as well as multiple
  OGSI instanaces to be launched.
  If an OSGI conflict is hit, the following error may be seen
  when accessing the administrative console help screen:
  [8/23/07 18:06:37:869 CDT]  0000002a IEHS          E

Problem conclusion

• The IEHS administrative console help system has been updated to
  be compatible with applications that use OSGI.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 7.0.0.7 and 6.1.0.31.  Please refer to the Recommended
