    ****************************************************************
    An application installed with the zeroEarCopy option cannot be
    edited.  The following error is reported erroneously:
    
    com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.AdminException:
    ADMA0147E: The application <app_name> was installed using the
    zero ear copy option. It is not possible to perform any
    operation on this application that involves accessing the
    enterprise archive (EAR) file.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The faulty logic which prevented edits of applications
    installed with the zeroEarCopy option has been corrected.
    Those applications can now be edited.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.9.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
