PQ55771: COMMAND LINE UTILITIES DON'T WORK WHEN USING JCE PACKAGE THAT ISPART OF WAS 4.0.

APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Problem description and fix are available from customer.
.
 We have recently switched over to using WAS 4.0, with this
switch we
now rely on the JCE package that is shipped as part of WAS.
Whereas
before we included the JCE 1.2.1 package in the WCS directories.
We have
no issues with WCS running on WAS 4.0 using the JCE package
inside WAS.
However, we do have some command line configuration utilities
that rely
on the use of the JCE package. There seems to be a problem with
these
utilities using the JCE package that is part of WAS 4.0 when the
path to
the JCE files contain spaces. However, in the past when we
shipped the
JCE package as part of WCS, these tools did not have a problem
accessing
the JCE files even when spaces were in the path. Do you have any
suggestion on what may be the cause and how we would go about
fixing
this?
.
This is a JDK problem that Hursley has, ultimately they should
provide a
fix, but I doubt that will happen, so we have provided a fix to
JCE (its
on JIM now) that will fix the problem that the JDK introduced. I
don't
know when WebSphere will pick this up ... I'll copy Raj and see
if he
can help get WebSphere to pick up this fix.
.
Rosemary Hu requested that Level 2 create this APAR so that they
can provide an eFix.
