APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • On HP-UX, the Plugin is showing a connect error even though the
    application server is up.  The user has 2 application servers
    and one of them has been stopped.  The server that is up is
    getting the following error:
    ERROR: ws_common: websphereGetStream: Failed to connect to app
    server on host 'xxx', OS err=0.
    

Local fix

  • Changing the ConnectTimeout to 0 allowed it to work.
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of WebSphere Application Server   *
    *                  Plugin who use the HP_UX Operating System   *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The HP_UX version of the WebSphere      *
    *                      Application Server v70 Plugin sometimes *
    *                      fails to connect with partners if the   *
    *                      connectTimeout property is other than   *
    *                      zero even if the partner is up.         *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    If the HP_UX Plugin does not connect initially an incorrect
    error indicator is returned causing a incorrect path to be
    taken.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Changed the module so that the correct error indicator is
    returned therefore the correct path will be taken.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.5 currently scheduled for 08/10/2009.  Please
