Local fix Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: Websphere Application Server users who try   *
*                 to view the deployment Descriptor of ra.xml  *
*                 for an installed Resource Adapter.           *
*                                                              *
*                 The problem exists only a Network Deployment *
*                 setup.                                       *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In a Network Deployment environment,    *
*                      while trying to view the deployment     *
*                      descriptor for an installed rar file,   *
*                      a blank screen is obtained.             *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The black screen is shown because an exception is obtained
whiel trying to read the ra.xml for the rar.
The current logic assumes that the rar is available in binary
unexpanded form at the nodeagent side and tries to retrieve it.
But the file is available in expanded form at the node, so the
call to get the file fails with an IOException.
Problem conclusion
Code changes have been made to resolve the issue.
Please note: The same problem exists in version 6 too.
It was caused due to the restrictions imposed on filetransfer
between dmgr and Node.
To resolve the issue, please make the following configuration
changes.
On the administrative console traverse as
System Administration >dmgr > Process Definition > Java
Virtual Machine > Custom Properties
Define a new custom property with name and value as follows
com.ibm.websphere.management.filetransfer.allowOverwrite=true

The APAR is schedule to be available in 5.0.2.18 and 5.1.1.11.
