Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application Server Full       *
    *                  Profile versions 7.0, 8.0, 8.5 users using  *

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: java.lang.ClassCastException is         *
    *                      thrown instead of                       *

    *                      findByPrimaryKey method error.          *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    In rare instances, calling the findByPrimaryKey method on an
    entity bean results in a java.lang.ClassCastException. When
    this occurs, a javax.ejb.FinderException should be thrown
    instead.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A custom property com.ibm.ws.pm.forceEJBFinderException was
    introduced into persistence manager.  When
    com.ibm.ws.pm.forceEJBFinderException is set to true, a
    javax.ejb.FinderException will be thrown when a
    java.lang.ClassCastException occurs on a findByPrimaryKey
    call.  This custom property is not enabled by default.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.35, 8.0.0.10, and 8.5.5.4. Please refer to the
