workflow.20001.delta.repository

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If you run a service flow that uses variables and error codes of
  error events, and the error code has the same name as one of
  your variables, you might receive the following exceptions
  during run time:
  
  - CWLLG0391E: An update operation failed.
  com.lombardisoftware.core.TeamWorksRuntimeException:
  com.lombardisoftware.core.TeamWorksException: Type mismatch.
  Value "false" must be instance of structured IBM Business
  Automation Workflow type. Java class found: java.lang.Boolean
  
  - CWTBG0019E: Unexpected exception during execution. Exception
  information:
  'com.lombardisoftware.component.common.workflow.WorkflowProcessI
  temException:
  
  - Type mismatch. Expected "Boolean" type, but found:
  "java.lang.Double".
  
  
  PRODUCTS AFFECTED
  IBM Business Automation Workflow
  IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) Advanced
  IBM BPM Standard
  IBM BPM Express
  

Local fix

• Rename one of the variables to have a different, unique name.
  

Problem summary

• Depending on the order in which you created variables and the
  error event, a wrong type resolution might occur while a service
   flow is running if the variable names and error code of the
  error event differ only in the capitalization of the letters.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is planned for inclusion in a future release of Business
  Automation Workflow that prevents a wrong type resolution when
  the variable names and error code of the error event differ only
   regarding capitalization.
  

Temporary fix
