APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
User created a web service testear with contextroot set to /
(slash). This causes that WebServices URI to be truncated. For
example: http://localhost:9080/services/Hello rather than
http://localhost:9080/services/Hello?wsdl to retrieve the wsdl.

Local fix
The workaround is to manually change the endpoint in their
.wsdll files. The webservice will work correctly after the
endpoint is changed. The NPE problem is only affecting the
ability to load the WSDL file through a browser. It shouldn't
affect the functionality of the Web service.
Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server users *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: ?WSDL fails when the context root is *
* '/' *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: *
****************************************************************
When a web services enabled application has a context root of
'/' the ?WSDL facility fails with a NullPointerException
when trying to get the path the to WSDL.
Problem conclusion
This problem occured because of a misrepresentation internally
of the empty context root '/'. The problem has been addressed
and is corrected by the APAR.
Temporary fix
I've created a temporary fix and posted it on http:
