Error description

• When using WebSphere 8.5.0.1 with a blueprint application the
  following exception is encountered

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server who use blueprint EBA applications   *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: OSGi Services cannot obtained from a    *
  *                      ServiceFactory in blueprint             *
  *                      applications                            *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  A blueprint application that references a service class that
  implements org.osgi.framework.ServiceFactory should have the
  getService method called to obtain the actual service
  implementation.
  Instead, an error was returned indicating that the service
  class did not implement the required interface, indicating
  that the getService method had not been called.
  

Problem conclusion

• The blueprint implementation has been updated to ensure the
  getService method is called before checking the required
  service interface has been implemented
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.1.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
