Fix (APAR): PQ76884 Status: Fix Release: 4.0.7 Operating System: All Supersedes Fixes: CMVC Defect: PQ76884 Byte size of APAR: 1090434 Date: 2003-10-15 Abstract: Servlet processes incomplete post data when InterruptedIOException occurs Description/symptom of problem: Servlet processes incomplete post data when InterruptedIOException occurs. It could happen on slow connection/network and may cause servlet/jsp produce wrong result. Directions to apply fix: 1) Create temporary "fix" directory to store the jar file: Unix: /tmp/WebSphere/fix Windows: c:\temp\WebSphere\fix 2) Copy jar file to the directory 3) Shutdown WebSphere 4)Create a /Fix directory if one does not already exist 5) Run the jar file with the following command answering questions/prompts as they appear: java -jar -backupJar /Fix/_backup.jar 6) Restart WebSphere 7) The temp directory may be removed but the jar file should be saved. Do not remove any files created and stored in the /Fix directory. These files are required if a fix is to be removed. Directions to remove fix: NOTE: FIXES MUST BE REMOVED IN THE ORDER THEY WERE APPLIED. DO NOT REMOVE A FIX UNLESS ALL FIXES APPLIED AFTER IT HAVE FIRST BEEN REMOVED. YOU MAY REAPPLY ANY REMOVED FIX. Example: If your system has fix1, fix2, and fix3 applied in that order and fix2 is to be removed, fix3 must be removed first, fix2 removed, and fix3 re-applied. 1) Change directory to the fix location (/Fix). 2) Shutdown WebSphere 3) Run the backup jar file with the following command: java -jar 4) Restart WebSphere Directions to re-apply fix: Follow the instructions for applying a fix. If the backup files still exist (from the previous fix application), you will be prompted to overwrite. Answer "yes" at the overwrite prompts. Additional Information: PQ76013 addresses same issue on V5.0.x. If user getInputStream() and read data from it, user should catch and handle all exceptions properly.
