APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When the start service REST API is invoked with both a params
    URI parameter and a HTTP Request Body, any data in the body is
    used even when the HTTP Header "Content-Type:
    application/x-www-form-urlencoded" is not specified. This could
    lead to the URI parameter params to be inadvertently ignored.

Local fix

  • This issue can be avoided by using either of the following:
    - Remove any data you have set in the body.
    or
    - Remove the params URI parameter and use the body instead.
    

Problem summary

  • No additional information is available.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix is available or will be available that ensures the URI
    parameter params is not ignored when the start service REST API
    is invoked.
