Mobilefirst 8.0 Error IOS PUSH Notifications. Failed to load netty_tcnative_aix_ppc_64, netty_tcnative_ppc_64, netty_tcnative - ibm-mobilefirst

Question

I have updated Mobilefirst Platform Foundations 8.0 to the last fix available right now (8.0.0.0-MFPF-IF202011111304) After applying the fix, we didn't have any problem, however when we tried to send an IOS push notification we got this error:
[1/22/21 10:05:36:058 CST] 00000484 Mediator E
com.ibm.mfp.push.server.notification.Mediator submitNotification
FPWSE1081E: Failure sending notification. See the server log file for
more details.

According to the error, it looks like there is a missing library. Searching inside of the war I found out, that there are not libraries for aix.
There is someone out there with the same problem, or should I open a case with IBM?
Thank you!

Answer 1

Please create a case with IBM so we can track it and provide timely update/solution.
We are aware of the issue and working on it. Till then please use Legacy protocol to send APNS notifications.
To switch to Legacy protocol you need to set below JNDI to false
<jndiEntry jndiName="imfpush/mfp.push.apns.http2.enabled" value= '"false"'/>
Thanks.
