Error description

  • APAR Type:            Field
    Approver Initials:    RP
    Severity:             1
    Reported Release:     630
    Compid:               5724C04PS Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server
    ABSTRACT:             TEPS randomly crashes after applying 630
    Fix Pack 6
    
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    ================
    TEPS randomly crashes after applying 630-FP6. The eWAS
    SystemOut.log will show one of the following errors:
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException at
    com.ibm.TEPS.CTSQLJDBC.JDBCDataSource.pullSequenceWithTimeout(JD
    BCDataSource.java:541)
    
    or:
    
    java.sql.SQLException: Closed Resultset at
    oracle.jdbc.driver.ScrollableResultSet.next(ScrollableResultSet.
    java:311) at
    com.ibm.TEPS.CTSQLJDBC.JDBCDataSource.pullSequenceWithTimeout(JD
    BCDataSource.java:538)
    
    The exception occurs when trying to run a query to a JDBC data
    source (such as an Oracle warehouse database). If the query
    takes a long time to run, and the user switches to a different
    workspace before the JDBC query finishes, the crash will occur.
    

Local fix
