J2EE on Windows App server wont start after JSPM patching

Question

Hi,
I've patched an ECC6 system on DB2 V5R4 to SP16 level on ABAP side, and Enhancement pack 3, and then did an update to JSPM and installed new SP16 levels of the Java components.
Now my Windows App server starts only the ABAP Work processes, not the J2EE side. I get a yellow light and the message
J2EE Status info unavailable.
On the Windows work directory for Dialog instance D00, I see that the dev_server0 has only messages about the last shutdown 2 days ago.
The dev_jcontrol has errors in it abot Unknown property and
JStartupICheckFrameworkPackage: can't find framework package U:\usr\sap\WFD\D00\exe\jvmx.jar
see below.
Any ideas?
regards
Michael.

Thanks Kaushal,
I hadn't done any changes to UME, but I have got a JSPM support package (EP-PSERV SP16) in status of ERROR that seems to be at the bottom of the problem.
Apparently, JSPM is not able to cope with any flavour of IBM DB2 (Windows, AIX, or i) at a point in this support package.  There is a note 1156313 and it matches the error which is in the  sdm log file:
