If you do not have internet access on the system where WebSphere Process Server is installed, follow these steps to install the interim fixes:

  1. Download the fixes from the Fix Central links below.
  2. Extract the interim fix repositories and note the location where you placed them.
  3. Restart IBM Installation Manager and enter the repository locations from step 2 using the Files > Preferences menu.
  4. Click Update in Installation Manager to install the interim fixes.
  • JR35038: A PersistenceException exception is thrown when the messaging engine is configured while DB2 Universal Database is running. The Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) bus messaging engine does not start. Download from Fix Central for WebSphere Process Server or for WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
  • JR35039: In a cross-module synchronous invocation using a Service Component Architecture (SCA) import binding, if the target service returns a ServiceBusinessException exception with fault data in the form of a data object, the fault data object does not deserialize properly in the client. WAR Med does not recognize the modeled fault response. Download from Fix Central for WebSphere Process Server or for WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
  • JR35041: A NullPointerException exception is thrown during service deploy of an SCA module. This error can occur when a resource reference already exists in the containing enterprise archive (EAR) file containing an outbound adapter. Download from Fix Central for WebSphere Process Server or for WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
  • JR35042: While retrieving the details of a module, the SCA Representational State Transfer (REST) API fails with a NullPointerException exception in the first-failure data capture (FFDC) logs, and the Module Browser widget displays no artifacts. Also, the Module Graphical View does not display the imports and exports of the module and are stuck in the loading state. Download from Fix Central for WebSphere Process Server or for WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.

    DB2 fixes
    • IC64727: This problem is not specific to Business Process Choreographer or WebSphere Process Server; the problem might also occur in a WebSphere Application Server application. In IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ driver version 3.53.95 (bundled with DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows V9.5 Fix Pack 4) and later, a java.security.AccessControlException exception can occur when loading the JDBC driver. The error occurs when the application uses the Java SecurityManager and does not allow reflection privileges to the application. Examples for loading a JDBC driver include accessing a data source through javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup() from a JavaServer Pages (JSP) page or from a Java snippet in a Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) process when Java EE security is enabled. See https://www-01.ibm.com/support/entdocview.wss?uid=swg1IC64727
    • PK41236: The CEI does not get the correct schema name in DB2 for z/OS. See http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1PK41236.
    • PK89820: DB2 on Z/OS returns x'F3' for RLSCONV to some client
      and results in -30020 due to not supporting.      See http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1PK89820
