 A fix is available

Obtain the fix for this APAR



APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Some exceptions thrown from the JSP pre-compiler to be made
visible in the joblog may appear garbled after applying w510200.
This is due to redundant ASCII to EBCDIC translation for some
exception streams.
Local fix
Deploy the application without precompiling, then run the
JSP batch compiler script on the application to see the
exception messages in a readable format.
Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server    *
*                 V5.0 for z/OS                                *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When installing a war file with the     *
*                      JSP precompile option, if the JSP       *
*                      compile fails the error messages are    *
*                      in an unreadable format.                *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
Error messages with the failing JSP were being translated from
ASCII to EBCDIC twice making the error messages generated
unreadable.
Problem conclusion
Code was removed that translated the JSP error messages for the
second time which made the JSP error messages unreadable.
