Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server Liberty Profile * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The TCPChannel accepts connections when * * the server has not yet started. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The TCPChannel accepts connections during the server start up process before the applications or server has started. This behavior causes any request that comes into an application that is not ready to serve requests to get a HTTP 404 response with the message: "WebSphere Application Server Version V8.5 Liberty Profile - Context Root Not Found" .
Problem conclusion
A new waitToAccept configuration option was added to the TCPChannel that will close the connections until the server is ready. This new option should be used with the acceptThread TCP option. To enable the new behavior add the following configuration options in the endpoint section of the server.xml <tcpOptions waitToAccept="true" acceptThread="true"/> The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.9.
