    Deploying multiple editions of an application with name ending
    in '.ear.ear' can cause inconsistencies in the corresponding
    On Demand Configuration (ODC) appRoot values; resulting in the
    On Demand Router (ODR) erroneously returning 404 error codes
    for those applications.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The On Demand Configuration (ODC) component has been altered
    to ensure that the appRoot values corresponding to multiple
    editions of an application with name ending in '.ear.ear' are
    consistent; correcting the erroneous 404 return codes.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 8.5.0.2.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
