Problems after applying Fix Pack 25 for WebSphere Application Server 6.1 ND

[ak...@hotmail.com]

Running on Windows Server 2003 EE, single server. Application is running with DB2, no HTTP server on the frontend.
I installed FP 25 directly over FP5. Application ran fine with FP5. I see these stack traces after installed FP25:

java.lang.NullPointerException

at com.ibm.ws.rsadapter.jdbc.WSJdbcObject.close(WSJdbcObject.java:144)

Has anyone encountered, and solved, something similar?

Thanks!

Got some help from WebSphere support.

The problem is described in the following APAR: Link: [http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&context=SSEQTP&dc=DB550&uid=swg1PK86552&loc=en_US&cs=UTF-8&lang=en&rss=ct180websphere]

Applying the fixpak 6.1.0.25-WS-WAS-IFPK86552.pak for WebSphere's connection management solved the issue.
