PM31508; 7.0.0.13: defaultdatasource from ibm-ejb-bnd.xml fails with java.sql.sq

Download Description

PM31508 resolves the following problem:

ERROR DESCRIPTION:
When some EJBs are initialized, the defaultDatasource from the ibm-ejb-bnd.xml file fails with a
java.sql.SQLNonTransientException, "User ID length, 0, is not allowed." message.

The option of using wsadmin to correct the binding file is not feasible. Once the empty string is written out as userid and password in the binding file, it will always be written out as empty string by wsadmin. The only option right now is to change the binding file manually to correct the problem, which is not a
long-term solution.

LOCAL FIX:
NONE

USERS AFFECTED:

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:

RECOMMENDATION:
None

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 7.0.0.17. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information:
