APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
In the Admin Console, servlet exceptions occur when creating a
new Data Source for a User Defined JDBC provider on 5.1.1.5.
The problem was introduced by the code changes done for
PK02369
The problem only occurs on 5.1.1.5 that we have noticed.
Steps to reproduce:
1.) In AdminConsole go to Resources - JDBC Providers. Change
scope to Cell. Click New.
2.) Select User Defined JDBC Provider. OK.
3.) Change the implementation classname to something like
com.test.ConnectionPoolDataSource. OK.
4.) Go back to the JDBC Provider, under Additional Properties
click DataSource. Click New.
Servlet Exceptions display on top of the page and there is
a grayed box on the bottom right of the page so you cannot
select options for some of the parameters.
[ServletException in:/secure/layouts/dynamicSelectionLayout.jsp]
The exception in the console trace is:
SRVE0026E: [Servlet-Error]-[action]:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.ibm.ws.console.resources.jdbc.DataSourceDetailActionGen.
updateDataSource(DataSourceDetailActionGen.java:139)
at com.ibm.ws.console.resources.jdbc.DataSourceDetailAction.
perform(DataSourceDetailAction.java:280)
Local fix Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server users who use *
* the Admininstrative console to create a *
* Datasource for User defined jdbc providers *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: While attempting to create a *
* datasource for a user defined *
* jdbc provider, a servlet error is *
* thrown on the administrative console *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: *
****************************************************************
The problem was caused when we try to set the default connection
timeout in connection pool properties. The property was read
from a template file available in the configuration. Since for
a user-defined datasource no templates are available, a null
value was returned for connectionpool causing a
Nullpointerexception. This resulted in the servlet error being
thrown by the administrative console.
Problem conclusion
Code has been changed to correctly handle the null value being
returned.
The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion
in 5.02.14 and 5.1.1.8.
