PI15799: JAVA.LANG.VERIFYERROR MAY OCCUR DURING WEB SERVICES DEPLOYMENT WITH APPLICATION-PROVIDED FAULT BEANS IF WSDL IS NOT PROVIDED

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

After upgrading to WebSphere Application Server V8.5.5, a
java.lang.VerifyError could occur during the deployment of a Web
Services application.  This would occur under a scenario where
the application provides its own fault (exception) beans with
the same name as the fault beans that are generated by wsgen.
This would only occur when the application does not package a
WSDL file, which necessitates wsgen to be run to generate a WSDL
during the deployment.
.
The stack trace of the java.lang.VerifyError will be similar to
the following:
.
java.lang.VerifyError: JVMVRFY012 stack shape inconsistent;
class=package/exceptions/SpecificException,
method=getFaultInfo()Lpackage/faultbeans/SpecificFaultBean;,

The java.lang.VerifyError occurs due to a change introduced by
Java APAR IV34135, which is included in IBM Java 7.0 SR4.
WebSphere Application Server V8.5.5.0 includes Java 7.0 SR5. In
earlier fix pack levels that include earlier Java SR levels that
do not include the fix for APAR IV34135, the
java.lang.VerifyError will not occur under this scenario.

Local fix

Change the name of the application-provided fault beans to a
different name than the fault beans that are generated by wsgen,
or package the WSDL file in the application.

Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All WebSphere Application Server users of   *

*                      contains a JAX-WS web service but no    *
*                      WSDL file, "java.lang.VerifyError:      *

*                      error is observed and causes web        *
*                      service deployment failed.              *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The error occurs because if customized fault beans exist, they
will be overwritten during wsgen invocation.

Problem conclusion

A new argument, -Xdonotoverwrite is added in wsgen to disable
fault bean overwrite. Add this new property to allow users to
enable the argument.

There are two ways to add this property:

1)Edit the module's WebContent/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file. Add
the following property
DisableWSGENClassOverride: true
2) Or, Set the following JVM property
com.ibm.websphere.webservices.DisableWSGENClassOverride=true

Default value of both two properties is false.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix pack 8.5.5.3.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
