Abstract: IN THE ADMIN GUI OF A WEB APP'S SERVLET ENGINE DOESN'T DISPLAY UPDATES IN THE "SERVLET WEB PATHS LIST IN USE" FIELD.


Description/symptom of problem: 
On admin console, Model is showing for the Servlet under the Web App
in both "Servlet Web Path List" and "Servlet Web Paths List in Use" fields: 
"default_host/webapp/WebApp1/ErrorReporter"
if we change it to: "default_host/webapp/WebApp1/ErrorReporterNEW"
and OK then Apply. Stop/start the Model, regen the plugin
on the clone the new change is reflected.  
However the "Servlet Web Paths List in use" for the Model
does not show new change.

Directions to apply efix:
1) Create "efix" directory to store the efix jar file(s):
   AIX: /usr/WebSphere/AppServer/efix
   Solaris/Linux: /opt/WebSphere/AppServer/efix
   Windows: c:\WebSphere\AppServer\efix
2) Copy PQ65614_eFix.jar to the directory
3) Add the directory/jar file to the beginning of the admin server's classpath
  in admin.config:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminserver.classpath=C:/WebSphere/AppServer/efix/PQ65614_eFix.jar...

4) Stop and restart the Admin Server 

NOTE: Since the efix changes the column length on the APPSECURITY_TABLE, the users may need drop 
or create a new Admin DB and modify admin.config (as below) before restart the Admin Server. 

In admin.config:

com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.dbInitialized=false
install.initial.config=true
