Error description

When parsing a JAX-WS SOAP message, the following error is
logged in the SystemErr.log file.  This occurs when running
the webservice as a BLA (business level application) and the
JAXB runtime environment is not visible to the application
classloader.

Local fix

Add the jars to the application.
Or, you could create a WebSphere AppServer shared library to
point to them.

The error indicates that the JAXB Unmarshaller API does not
have access to some of the classes that are part of the JAXB
implementation.

Problem conclusion

The JAXB Unmarshaller generates code which requires that the
application's ClassLoader has access to classes which are
part of the JAXB implementation. But there are environments
such as those which use OSGi where this requirement cannot be
satisfied. To allow JAXB applications to work in such
environments the implementation was fixed so that when the
ClassLoader does not have access to the JAXB implementation
classes an alternate path through the Unmarshaller is taken.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix pack 7.0.0.9. Please refer to the Recommended Updates
page for delivery information:
