Error description

  • With Websphere Application Server V8.0 and later, the
    associated HTTP server fails with MCH3601 F/QSVTAP22LF  when
    using STRTCPSVR RESTART(*HTTP).
    
    
    From module . : MOD_WAS_AP
    From procedure: as_create_config__FP10apr_pool_tP10server_rec
    Statement . . : 5
    To module . . : MOD_WAS_AP
    To procedure  : as_create_config__FP10apr_pool_tP10server_rec
    Statement . . : 5
    
    Message . . . . :   Pointer not set for location referenced.
    

Local fix

  • Do not specify RESTART(*HTTP), but rather restart by ending it
    first:
    ENDTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(INSTNAME)
    then
    STRTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(INSTNAME)

    SERVER(*HTTP) RESTART(*HTTP)" when a WebSphere plugin is
    configured.
