Error description
Valid URLs with DBCS characters return errors, for example HTTP 404 errors, instead of functioning correctly.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users who use URLs with double byte * * character set (DBCS) characters in them to * * access applications on an IBM WebSphere * * Application Server Liberty profile server. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Errors accessing an application * * using DBCS characters in the URL on a * * Liberty profile server. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** URLs with DBCS characters were not encoded correctly by the Liberty server WebContainer code. Therefore when trying to access an application on a Liberty profile server using DBCS characters in the URL the application would appear inaccessable or would not run correctly. If the URL coming into the Liberty profile server, and seen in the Liberty profile WebContainer traces, contains what appear to be invalid single byte encoded characters, and the application is either not found, or gives back bad results (due to DBCS query parameters being incorrect), then this problem may be occurring.
Problem conclusion
The proper encoded set was used to encode URLs coming into a Liberty profile server. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.0.1. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
