Error description
Plugin issue with Intelligent Management enabled. WebSphere Application Server returns a 404 when a request is sent to an application that has the same context root as another deployed application.
Local fix
Use unique context roots. Otherwise, separate out each app into different virtual hosts with unique aliases.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V8.5 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Intelligent Management enabled * * WebSphere Plugin returns 404 when * * routing to an application that has * * same context root as another * * application * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The URIs of the web modules were not communicated correctly between ODRLIB and IM REST service. When two applications have the same context root but different suffixes, this caused ODRLIB to pick the wrong application without the proper URI information.
Problem conclusion
The ODRLIB was fixed to subscribe and process the URIs properly. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.2. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
