Error description
Customer had modified variable:

<logMissingTranContext>false</logMissingTranContext>
.
in /WebSphere/V5R0M0/AppServer/properties/j2c.properties
but the variable was not picked up by Websphere.
.
Connection Management was unable to pick up the WAS_PROPS_DIR
environment variable, and did not pick up the change from
j2c.properties.

****************************************************************
Connection Management properties which are configurable in
the j2c.properties file in the WAS_PROPS_DIR directory can not
be customized by the user.  The problem is that the runtime
looks for the j2c.properties file in the directory pointed to
by the value of the WAS_PROPS_DIR variable, but the runtime
can not access the value of the WAS_PROPS_DIR variable, and so
it fails without an error message when trying to read
j2c.properties.  Thus these properties are hard-coded in the
Connection Management runtime and can not be user-configured.
For example there is no ability for the user to set the
logMissingTranContext to 'false' in order to turn off
J2CA0075 messages.
Problem conclusion
Changed WebSphere Application Server for z/OS server startup
code to enable the WAS_PROPS_DIR variable to be accessed by the
Connection Management runtime, enabling Connection Management to
access the j2c.properties file.
