Error description

  • While running the application with (WS-RM)
    WS-ReliableMessaging, message sequences accumulate and never
    complete.
    
    The scenario is this:
    - Using 5 clients each using 10 sequences (set to 1WaySync
    inorder messaging)
    
    The following error may be seen:

Problem summary

    * USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application                   *
    *                  Server users of JAXWS with                  *
    *                  WS-ReliableMessaging (WS-RM)                *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WS-RM message sequences may not         *
    *                      complete when sending oneWay messages   *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:  Install a fixpack containing this APAR      *
    ****************************************************************
    A JAX-WS web service using WS-RM can receive message from
    multiple WS-RM enabled clients.   The clients are sending
    oneWay messages, and some of these messages are not completing.
    
    The following error may be seen on the Websphere Application
    Server where the JAX-WS web services is deployed:
    ---------------------------------------------
    org.apache.sandesha2. workers.InvokerWorker invokeMessage
    Exception :
    org.apache.axis2.AxisFault:
    java.lang.NullPointerException
    at org.apache.axis2. AxisFault.makeFault (AxisFault.java:430)

    at org.apache.sandesha2. workers.InvokerWorker.run
    (InvokerWorker.java:111)
    

Problem conclusion

  • The root of the problem is the JAX-WS runtime is incorrectly
    unmarshaling the incoming message from the WS-RM clients.
    Two-way messages use an unmarshaling algorithm that is working
    correctly.  However due to a flaw in the logic, the one-way
    messages were using a different algorithm.
    
    The code is corrected so that the two-way and one-way messages
    are now using the same unmarshaling algorithm.  This change
    prevents the NullPointerException error, and the one-way
    messages are now processed correctly.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.5.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
