Error description
When making two calls to CICS using WOLA within the same WAS transaction, the second call to getConnection results in a NullPointerException with the following call stack: com.ibm.ws390.ola.jca.ConnectionRequestInfoImpl.equals (ConnectionRequestInfoImpl.java:259) com.ibm.ejs.j2c.SharedPool.getSharedConnection(SharedPool.java: 293) com.ibm.ejs.j2c.PoolManager.reserve(PoolManager.java: 2112) com.ibm.ejs.j2c.ConnectionManager.allocateMCWrapper(ConnectionMa nager. java:1061) com.ibm.ejs.j2c.ConnectionManager.allocateConnection(ConnectionM anager. java:698) com.ibm.ws390.ola.jca.ConnectionFactoryImpl.getConnection (ConnectionFactoryImpl.java:121)
Local fix
Make sure the OLA resource adapter is defined in the web.xml as Unshareable, ie <res-sharing-scope>Unshareable</res-sharing-scope>
