Error description

  • The deprecated Human Task Manager and Business Flow Manager
    JAX-RPC API are not working correctly complaining that required
    libraries are missing.
    Additionally BAW installations which configure a custom
    ContextRoot parameter encounter that the Human Task Manager
    REST API is not accessible anymore properly.

Local fix

Problem summary

  • The TaskContainer and BPEContainer applications are missing
    essential client libraries which are required to enable the
    Business Flow Manager and Human Task Manager JAX-RPC API
    capability. Additionally BAW installations which leverage a
    customized ContextRoot parameter are not able to interact with
    the Human Task Manager REST API endpoint anymore because of
    faulty entries in the deployment descriptor.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix is available for IBM Business Automation Workflow (BAW)
    20.0.0.2 that enables the HumanTaskManager REST API to work
    again properly.
    

Temporary fix
