Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
    *                  Server version 8 using the migration        *
    *                  command WASPostUpgrade for a client         *
    *                  install.                                    *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WASPostUpgrade throws a                 *
    *                      NullPointerException for a client       *
    *                      install.                                *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The method throwing the NullPointerException should not have
    been called for a client install. The code had been rearranged
    to address another problem, therefore revealing this
    previously undetected problem.
