Problems with RTC 1.0.1 after first restart
Jazz RTC 1.0.1 + AIX 5.3 + LDAP (bluepages) + DB2
I recently reported a very similar problem on RQM: https://jazz.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2936 and now I've hit the same problem on RTC 1.0.1 I've just migrated one of our repositories to RTC 1.0.1 and it re-started OK for the first time after the migration, but next time it was stopped/re-started, nobody was able to login from a browser, and the browser complained about a 'Redirect loop'. I've now found the problem and it's in: .../jazz/server/tomcat/conf/server.xml One of the lines in this file is very long (about 416 characters) - it's somewhere around line number 273. It's within an xml comment and it starts: * Pooled means that the replication .... All the other lines in this file are less than 146 characters so I split this line into shorter lengths and now it all works OK. This has fixed the problem for both RTC 1.0.1 and RQM If you hit this problem you will need to fix the server.xml file, but you will also need to stop the server and delete the following directory: .../jazz/server/tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost/jazz/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/ This directory will be automatically re-created when you re-start the server. You will also have to re-install all the licenses. |

It seems that the AIX VM has a significantly smaller default stack size
than the other VMs and increasing it should fix your problem. The full discussion is available at https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Jazz% 20Project#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=65510 Comments 27-28 should explain how to work around the problem by changing the VM size options - Matt Lavin Jazz Server Team On Thu, 2008-12-11 at 16:17 +0000, cawthorn wrote: Jazz RTC 1.0.1 + AIX 5.3 + LDAP (bluepages) + DB2 |
Thanks for that but wouldn't it be desirable to split the line in server.xml into smaller pieces anyway. It's clearly not meant to look the way it does because none of the surrounding lines look the same.

Do you have more information about how shortening a line in an XML file
would fix the redirect problem? Deleting the ../jazz/server/tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost/jazz/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/ would temporarily fix the problem from the bug. Are you saying that if you change the XML then you can use and restart the server without the problem coming back? - Matt Lavin Jazz Server Team On Thu, 2008-12-11 at 16:17 +0000, cawthorn wrote: Jazz RTC 1.0.1 + AIX 5.3 + LDAP (bluepages) + DB2 |
Yes, shortening the line has permanently fixed the problem.
The same problem occurs on both RTC 1.0.1 and RQM 1.0 and this appears to have permanently fixed it for both of them. |
and just for the record, the '-Xss512k' option is already in the server.xml file that comes with RQM so it didn't fix the problem at all.
