Overview
Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) is an industry-wide standard for object-oriented communication between processes, which is supported in several programming languages. Several subcomponents of WebSphere Application Server use CORBA to communicate across processes.
When a CORBA process fails, that is a request from one process to another cannot be sent, completed, or returned, a high-level exception is created, such as TransactionRolledBackException: CORBA TRANSACTION_ROLLEDBACK. To show the underlying cause of the failure, applications that use CORBA services generate minor codes that are written to the exception stack. Look for "minor code" in the exception stack to locate these exceptions.
