PQ59504: SSI DIRECTIVES DISPLAYS "AN ERROR OCCURRED WHILE PROCESSING .."

APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
When IHS Server Side includes are used to access Websphere
Components an error message is displayed on the resulting HTML
page.  The page displays correctly but an error message is
printed. "error occurred while processing directive".
.
This is caused by the return code used by the WAS 4.0 plugin
routine that executes while processing the HTTP response.
Local fix
No workaround exists
Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server version 4.0     *
*                 users who have IHS/Apache calling servlets   *
*                 via server-side include (SSI).               *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a servlet is invoked via SSI, an   *
*                      error message can be found at the end   *
*                      of the servlet content.                 *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The plugin was returning the incorrect return code to
IHS/Apache when the servlet was being invoked via SSI.  As a
result, the webserver would think the SSI call failed when
it actually completed successfully.
Problem conclusion
Changed the plugin so that it returned the correct return
code for requests invoked via SSI.
