Problem conclusion

  • The "Create" button may cause a Null Pointer Exception when
    pressed while a non-root user is using the tool to configure a
    web server plug-in. This has been addressed by adding null
    checks before accessing the objects in the affected method.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 8.0.0.2.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
