PM24350: URL MAPPING IS NOT WORKING FOR A JAX-WS WEB SERVICES REQUEST OVER SOAP.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• For a JAX-WS web service request, if the web application
  deployment descriptor contains a URL pattern of /baz/* then it
  is expected that requests to /baz or /baz/HelloWorld are mapped
  to the servlet. However, that is not happening.
  
  The user has to send in a request that is exactly equal to the
  pattern. For above mentioned URL mapping the client has to use
  http://host_name:9080/TEST_URL_Web/baz/* as request.
  
  The following endpoints result in an error:
  
  http://host_name:9080/TEST_URL_Web/baz/HelloWorld
  or
  http://host_name:9080/TEST_URL_Web/baz
  
  In these cases the following error occurs :
  
  CWWSS7200E: Unable to create AxisService from
  ServiceEndpointAddress : http://host_name:
  9080/Test_URL_Web/baz.

  In these cases the following error occurs :
  
  CWWSS7200E: Unable to create AxisService from
  ServiceEndpointAddress : http://host_name:
  9080/Test_URL_Web/baz.
  

Problem conclusion

• The JAX-WS runtime has been corrected such that a servlet with
  a mapping URL pattern of /baz/* will correctly map to a
  request like http://host_name:9080/TEST_URL_Web/baz/HelloWorld
  or http://host_name:9080/TEST_URL_Web/baz
  
  In some cases, it may not be possible for the JAX-WS runtime
  to locate the correct servlet.  The JAX-WS runtime has been
  updated to find the correct servlet.  However, as a side
  effect of this change, if a web.xml contained an invalid
  classname for an endpoint, the service will no longer be
  found.
  
  Therefore, if the servlet cannot be found, set the following
  JVM property:
  com.ibm.ws.websvcs.extension.fixSCA_wsdlQuery
  The default value is false and must be set to true to enable
  this fix.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix packx. 6.1.0.39.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
