Error description

  • The batch packager creates a completely new version of the
    manifest file for the JAR file referenced by -jarfile.
    
    Also,  there are couple more issues associated with this:
    1. In the printSyntax() method the property nonxadsjndiname is
    wrongly spelled.
    2. In the output of the batch packager the version is not shown:
    "[INFO] BatchPackager Version: null"

    ****************************************************************
    The batch packager generates a new manifest file when it
    packages the application. However it does not include the data
    from the existing manifest file of the jar in the application.
    The batch packager displays "null" version, and the help syntax
    has a typo.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The batch packager has been updated to include the data from
    existing manifest file. The version of the batch packager also
    has been updated, and the typo corrected for the syntax.
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fixpack 8.0.0.4. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page
