APAR PQ97391 addresses the following defect in WebSphere
Application Server V5.0 for z/OS:

(MD20345) If a session ID is reused, the cache ID retrieved
must also be reused. Otherwise, there will be a cacheID
mismatch.

(MD20466) If the customer sets the customization dialog field
"Use APPL Profile to restrict access to WebSphere:" to "N", but
the RACF class APPL is active and a profile matching the
WebSphere Application Server security domain name (or the
default CBS390) exists, then all WebSphere server and client IDs
must have access to the profile.

Such a "false match" can easily occur if WebSphere Application
Server 4.0.1 (which uses APPL profile CBS390, but different
default user ID and group names) was previously installed on
the same system, or if the customer has a generic APPL profile
which matches the WebSphere Application Server 5.x security
domain name.

If the matching APPL profile is not granted to the server user
IDs and to WSGUEST (which can NOT inherit access from a UACC
value, since it has the RESTRICTED attribute), then the
servant regions will fail during startup.

Here are the symptoms when starting the WebSphere V5.0
deployment manager when CBS390 is defined, not granted:

(MD20602) ABEND0C4/ABENDS0C4 IN
*PATHNAM/jni_GetPrimitiveArrayRegion,
called from bbooejsb.getContainerKey() during dynamic proxy
invoke.

Problem conclusion
APAR PQ97391 fixes the following defect in WebSphere Application
Server V5.0 for z/OS.

(MD20345) Set cache ID according to the cache ID retrieved from
cookie/browser.

(MD20466) Update the customization dialog generated security
domain instructions so that if the user selected "N" (No) to
"Use APPL Profile to restrict access to WebSphere", we generate
instructions to tell the user to check for pre-existing APPL
Object.

(MD20602) Invalid data passed thru the JNI interface to
getContainerKey() and on to jni_GetPrimitiveArrayRegion()
caused the ABEND0C4. Correction prevents invalid data from
reaching the JNI call.

APAR PQ97391 is associated with SERVICE LEVEL W502019 of
WebSphere Application Server V5.0 for z/OS.
