APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When secured communication (SSL) is used between plugin and
    Application Server, intermittently the AppServer does not read
    the complete request. This causes the plugin to wait till the
    ServerIOTimeout fires and resend the request to the AppServer
    and get the response back. This whole process causes the end
    user wait longer for the response.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
    *                  Server V6.1 and V7.0                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A read timeout can occur if a request   *
    *                      has large headers, is using SSL, and    *
    *                      is using non-direct byte buffers        *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    If a request with large headers and SSL is used, the HTTP
    Channel will think it needs more data and timeout on a read
    that should not happen
    

Problem conclusion

  • HTTP Channel was modified to properly reference the array
    holding headers so it does not attempt an unnecessary read
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 6.1.0.33 and 7.0.0.13.  Please refer to the
