A 3 minute delay in application startup was seen followed by the message: BBOO0221W: CWNBV0005W: A validation.xml file was found for the /xxxx/xxx.ear/xxx.war module. However, that validation.xml file is not configured for validation; therefore this XML file is ignored.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server Liberty Profile whose application * * contains a validation.xml file not * * intended for Bean Validation. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Delay in application start when Bean * * Validation attempts to validate a * * validation.xml not intended for Bean * * Validation. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** A 3 minute delay in application startup was seen followed by the message: BBOO0221W: CWNBV0005W: A validation.xml file was found for the /xxxx/xxx.ear/xxx.war module. However, that validation.xml file is not configured for validation; therefore this XML file is ignored. The new Bean Validation APIs in WebSphere v8 attempt to process any file named validation.xml, even if it's not intended to be used for Bean Validation. The validation.xml in this case was intended for the struts framework of the customer's application.

Problem conclusion
With this fix, code has been added to Bean Validation to allow for only the processing of a validation.xml file which is defined by the Bean Validation specification, all other validation.xml files will be ignored. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.1.
