Error description

  • Issues  encountered when trying to add ws handler to
    the Notification Service for outbound invocation handling.
    
    1.Exceptions encountered when trying to add ws handler to the
    Notification Service for outbound invocation handling.
    
    2.After Notification Service has been created, add ws handler
    to the notification service, another exception encountered.
    However,next time you go back to the notification service, ws
    handler seems has been added and asked you to save the change.
    
    3. After notification service has been created, adding the ws
    handler the service point for inbound invocation handling. This
    procedure finished successfully, however, the ws handler logic
    is not being invoked.
    
    4. On another attempt, adding the ws handler to the service
    point while creating the notification service and service
    point. This time,the result shows that the ws handler logic was
    being invoked for inbound invocation.
    
    5. Removing the ws handler from droplist on notification
    service point, the ws handler logic is still being invoked. It
    seems like the operation of removing the ws handler from the
    service point does not work.

    * USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application                   *
    *                  Server users of JAX-WS Outbound handlers    *

    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Errors reported when configuring a      *
    *                      WS-Notification service to use a        *
    *                      JAX-WS outbound handler.                *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    When specifying a WS-Notification service JAX-WS outbound
    handler, a NoClassDefFoundError was reported by the
    administration console. After saving the configuration change,
    the outbound handler was not invoked by the WS-Notification
    service as expected.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The administration console has been updated to correctly alter
    the WS-Notification service configuration. The underlying web
    services runtime has also been updated to correctly invoke the
    handlers.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.27, 8.0.0.5, and 8.5.0.1.  Please refer to the
