![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description When using the v5 HTTP Plugin with the IBM HTTP Server, customers may periodically experience 404 'Servlet Host not Found' errors returned to the browser when accessing their web applications. This will be accompanied by messages in the servant region joblog of the requested application such as: . Trace: 2003/09/29 17:56:30.154 01 t=ACE5A8 c=26.2 key=P8 Description: Log Boss/390 Error from filename: ./bborjtr.cpp at line: 812 error message: BBOO0223I no private server port header . Subsequently, the servant region will attempt to use a value of -1 for the port assignment on the request, which will not be valid.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V5.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Intermittent 404 ('Servlet Host not * * Found') return codes from the server * * when using the HTTP Plugin. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Web container does not detect the private header, $WSSP, that the Plugin inserted into the request. It ends up using -1 for the request port and failing the request. This error trace is issued: Trace: 2003/09/29 17:56:30.154 01 t=ACE5A8 c=26.2 key=P8 Description: Log Boss/390 Error from filename: ./bborjtr.cpp at line: 812 error message: BBOO0223I no private server port header The web contianer did not find the header because it is looking for $wssp, but the HTTP transport incorrectly lowercased it to $Wssp. This error could cause any private header to not be detected.Problem conclusion The HTTP Transport had a parsing/lowercasing error when only one character of a HTTP header line is read into the input buffer. The remaining portion of the header is read in but one character is not lowercased. The processing error has been corrected. APAR PQ79160 is associated with SERVICE LEVEL W501002 of WebSphere Application Server V5.0 for z/OS.Temporary fix Comments
