Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application Server Full       *
    *                  Profile versions 8.0 and 8.5.5 users of     *
    *                  JavaServer Faces (JSF) MyFaces on           *
    *                  IBM WebSphere Portal                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A memory leak occurs when managed       *
    *                      beans are bound to a portlet session    *
    *                      and are not cleaned up.                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Binding attributes to a session requires that the portlet
    session attribute names be prefixed with
    "javax.portlet.p.<ID>?". The prefix was not being removed
    before checking if the attribute was a session-scoped managed
    bean causing these beans to not be cleaned up.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The JSF MyFaces code was updated to fix the problem when the
    following context parameter is set to true:
     com.ibm.ws.jsf.removePortletSessionAttributeNamePrefix
    (true/false-default).
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 8.0.0.10 and 8.5.5.5. Please refer to the
