Code version tested on: 3.5.2
Platforms: ALL
Date: 3/13/2001

********************
Following is a summary of the three main issues that PQ42709 
addresses, and the steps to replicate the conditions:

1. Description:  This is a problem where when all 
references to a clone have been deleted the clone 
itself remains. Modifying WebApplication web path 
in a model does not remove "old" web resources in 
the virtual host. The old ones are left "dangling"
Here is how to create it:
1)Model an application server. Check both boxes.
2) Select a webapplication - lets say examples in the 
default server model
3) change webpath from /webapp/examples to /webapp/
example.
4) Here is the problem now we have both resource 
/webapp/example and
/webapp/examples that show up as web resource
NOTE: Jay Sartoris made additional changes
included in the final product to assure
the correct uris were deleted.

2. Description:  Cannot modify new servlet 
model properties in 
console or XMLConfig. Results in Transaction 
Rollback  Exception in console or XMLConfig 
stack trace.
Problems with webapp model updates were fixed
in 3.02 for PQ39951. (That issue did not exist for
PQ39951.)

3. Description:  Creating a Model Servlet does 
not create web resource.
Here is how to see.
1) Create a model out of an Application Server. 
Check both boxes ( i.e,
make clone and do recursively)
2) Pick any web application in the model
3) Add a servlet to it
Notice that no web resource was created within 
the virtual host the URI, WebPath, and other 
resources are not available for edit.  
********************

To apply the fix:  Place the pq42709V35.jar in the <WAS_HOME>\lib directory.  
Modify the admin.config file in the <WAS_HOME>\bin directory and prepend the classpath with the 
fully qualified path to pq42709V35.jar.  Then restart the WebSphere Admin Server. 
If you are using a batch file to start your admin server, prepend <WAS_HOME>\lib\pq42709V35.jar
to the classpath of the batch file.
NOTE: On non-Windows platforms, the case will be relevant so type carefully.

This fix, pq42709V35.jar is for 3.5 ptf 2 for admin console/modeling and cloning
related defects.

Testing the fix:
1. Start WebSphere Admin Server and console.
2. Create an application server with servlet engine and web application.
3. Create a servlet under web application.
4. Create a model from the application server (recursive and making base instance a clone).
5. Create a model servlet from the new model web application.
6. Create a new clone of the model application server.
7. Modify the web path of one of the model servlets and apply the changes.
8. Check to ensure that the URI (under default host) is correct and that the old URI is deleted.  
Also check web path of clones.
9. Modify the web path of the model web application and apply the changes.
10. Check to ensure that all of the URIs are correct and that the old URIs are deleted.  Also 
check web path of clones.

Success condition:  Steps 8 and 10 will show only the updated URIs.  The original URIs will no longer 
exist; without this fix they will.

Note: Steps 8 and 10 may require closing and restarting of the console (or multiple 
refreshes to the default host).  Also step 5 may show an exception if any field (even optional ones) 
are left blank (though the operation will still succeed).  These are defects in the console and will 
show up with or without the applied fix.  All testing was using WebSphere AE 3.5.2 on Windows NT.
