  A customized ExceptionMapper does not work as the engine throws
  an EJBException instead of the user defined Exception when there
  are more than two JAX-RS 2.0 Applications
  

Problem conclusion

• Dropped the shared exception mapper list for multiple JAX-RS 2.0
  applications, and we now check the existence of EJB
  ExceptionMapper for each Application.
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix
  pack 8.5.5.9.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for
