This APAR includes fixes for WebSphere Application Server
Version 3.5 APARs that also apply to the WebSphere Application
Server Version V4.0.1.

PQ57495 INCLUDED JSPS WITH DBCS CHARACTERS ARE NOT DISPLAYED
PROPERLY.


PQ66335 -
Optimizations for connecting to DB2 running on OS/390 or z/OS
were included in WebSphere Application Server Connection
Manager. These optimizations created a dependency on classes in
the DB2 JDBC driver. This can lead to a failure with other JDBC
drivers and Database Management Systems.


PQ67528 -
WebSphere Application Server session clustering code does not
handle java.io.SerializableExceptions, preventing database
resources from being freed.


PQ68388 -
When the Connection Manager fails to make a connection to a
datasource, it throws an Exception containing the message
"Failed to get a connection." This Exception can be caught in
the HttpServlet's service method.
If a more descriptive message is received from the JDBC
driver, that message is written to the ncf log.  The more
descriptive message is not made available to the HttpServlet.


PQ68506
The JSP level 1.1 batch compile tool
$was_install_root$/AppServer/bin/jsp11BatchCompile.sh
generates class files from the JSP source with names which are
inconsistent with those generated by WebSphere Application
Server when those JSP source files have names which include
special characters, such as "-" or "_".

Also, both the JSP level 1.1 and level 1.0 batch compile tools
$was_install_root$/AppServer/bin/jsp10BatchCompile.sh and
$was_install_root$/AppServer/bin/jsp11BatchCompile.sh
do not accept multiple JSP source files for compilation.


PQ68767 -
After the application of APAR 
PQ65746 found in PTF UQ69729, the
JSP level 1.0 compiler incorrectly uses the Web application
classpath of the the first JSP it compiles for all
subsequent JSP compilations.


PQ68804 -
After the application of APAR 
PQ54575 found in PTF UQ60759, the
JSP level 1.1 processor will not compile JSPs which reside in
the WEB-INF directory of the Web application document root.
The abstract of APAR 
PQ54575 states: "WebSphere v3.5 serves
JSP/HTML documents to clients from WEB-INF directory in
contradiction to the 2.2 spec.  See section 9.4."  Some
customers have a different interpretation of section 9.4.  These
customers may want the ability to compile JSPs which reside in
the WEB-INF directory of the Web application document root.


PQ69540 -
URL pattern to servlet code mapping behavior changed after the
application of PTF UQ65839.  Prior to UQ65839, a URL like
/a/xxx/any.jsp with a was.conf servlet mapping of
webapp.<webapp-name>.servlet.<servlet-name>.servletmapping=/a
would match on /a with /xxx/any.jsp considered path information.
After the application of PTF UQ65839, *.jsp is considered a
better match than /a for the URL /a/xxx/any.jsp because *.jsp is
a longer path than /a.
Problem conclusion
84473 -
The service level was changed to W401408.
