The JSF Portlet Bridge should not be bundled as a WebSphere runtime component
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of the JavaServer Faces (JSF) * * Portlet Bridge in WebSphere Application * * Server versions 8.5.5 and 9.0 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: JSF PORTLET BRIDGE SHOULD NOT BE * * BUNDLED BY WEBSPHERE * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The JSF Portlet Bridge is typically needed by applications making use of Portlets and running on WebSphere Portal. For that reason, the JSF Portlet Bridge will be provided by the Portal Server runtime, instead of by WebSphere.
Problem conclusion
The JSF Portlet Bridge will no longer be provided as part of WebSphere. That is, the file previously located in <WAS_HOME>/plugins/com.ibm.ws.prereq.jsfportlet.jar will be removed. Future support for the JSF portlet bridge will be provided by HCL: see https://help.hcltechsw.com/digital-experience/8.5/migrate/mig_po st_jsf.html The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in WebSphere Application Server fix packs 8.5.5.17 and 9.0.5.2.
