This Release Notes document contains important information about Sun JavaTM Enterprise System (Java ES) 5 Update 1. Read this document before you begin using Java ES in order to improve your overall installation, upgrade, and operation experience. This document is updated as needed to describe new issues as they arise. See Revision History to learn about these updates. The most up-to-date version of this document can be found in the Java ES 5 Update 1 documentation collection at http://docs.sun.com/coll/1286.3.
This is the first update release of Java ES. At Java ES 5, Sun instituted a new release model for Java ES that provided for major releases, minor releases, and update releases. Update releases, like Java ES 5 Update 1, focus on providing bug fixes and a constrained set of feature enhancements such that the release is suitable for rapid adoption by the majority of existing users. Other than in rare exceptions, an update release is 100% backwardly compatible with the prior release.
Because update releases are intended for rapid adoption, they use different delivery mechanisms from major and minor releases. See Getting the Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Software for information about the delivery mechanisms for Java ES 5 Update 1.
Platforms covered: this document covers Java ES for the following platforms:
Solaris 10 for SPARCTM, x86, and x64 platforms
Solaris 9 for SPARC and x86 platforms
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (AS and ES) for x86 and x64 platforms
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (AS and ES) for x86 and x64 platforms
HP-UX 11i v1 for PA-RISC 2.0 platform
Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP4
Microsoft Windows XP SP2
Microsoft Windows 2003 Enterprise Server SP1 (32-bit and 64-bit)
For more information about platforms, see Platform Requirements and Issues.
Components covered: this document covers the Java ES components that are distributed with and installed by the Java ES installer, including components that were installed by earlier versions of the Java ES installer and are now maintained by applying Java ESAccumulated patch clusters or individual patches with the java_es-5 keyword. It does not provide information about Java ES components that are distributed and installed in other ways.
Topics covered: this document covers the following main topics:
General platform requirements and issues for Java ES
General compatibility issues for Java ES
Installation, upgrade, and uninstallation issues for Java ES in general, the installer and uninstaller, and the Java ES components distributed with the installer and uninstaller.
Because this Release Notes document does not cover issues related to all aspects of component usage, you should also read the component-level release notes for the Java ES components you will be using. See Component Release Notes for a listing of the available component-level release notes.

Although Java ES 5 Update 1 is support on all versions of Solaris 9 and Solaris 10 on SPARC and x86 platforms, Sun recommends that you use the following updates:
Solaris 9: Update 7 (9/04) or newer
Solaris 10 SPARC: Update 1 (1/06) or newer
Solaris 10 x86: Update 2 (6/06) or newer
Java ES runs on Solaris systems installed using the following Solaris software groups:
SUNWCXall – Entire Solaris Software Group Plus OEM Support
SUNWCall – Entire Solaris Software Group
SUNWCprog – Developer Solaris Software Group
Java ES can also run on a minimized Solaris 10 system installed using SUNWCreq (Core System Solaris Software Group) or SUNWCuser (End User Solaris Software Group), provided you are not installing Sun Cluster or Sun Cluster Geographic Edition.
To install Java ES 5 Update 1 on Solaris 10 system that has SUNWCreq installed, add these packages:
SUNWadmc |
SUNWpl5u |
SUNWadmfr |
SUNWxcu4 |
SUNWadmfw |
SUNWxcu6 |
If you will be using the graphical (GUI) installer, also add these packages:
SUNWctpls |
SUNWxwplr |
SUNWmfrun |
SUNWxwplt |
SUNWxwfnt |
SUNWxwrtl |
SUNWxwice |
|
Note that you must add SUNWxwplt before SUNWxwplr to satisfy dependency requirements.
Java ES has been tested with the two minimized Solaris 10 installations listed above. However, it is possible that using certain features of Java ES components may require additional packages.
Many Java ES components require particular Solaris patches to operate correctly. The installer checks for these patches based on the components you choose to install, and reports a list of any you need to add. If you are upgrading, or if you want to prepare your system before running the installer, you can download and apply a patch cluster that contains all the operating system patches needed to run all Java ES components. To acquire one of these patch clusters:
Go to http://sunsolve.sun.com.
Click “Patches and Updates”.
Click “Recommended Patch Clusters”.
Locate the patch cluster beginning with “Java ES Required OS” that applies to your OS version and download it.
Note that these patch clusters may contain Solaris kernel patches. Therefore, make sure you:
Read the README for patch cluster carefully. Also, read the README for each patch in the cluster, especially the kernel patches.
Install the patch cluster in single user mode, and perform a reconfigure reboot (boot -r) after installation. If some patches fail to install and report that a “reconfigure reboot is needed before invoking additional patch commands”, you need to install the cluster again after the reboot.
Also note that most of the OS patches required by Java ES are already included in recent Solaris updates. Therefore, if you are running a recent Solaris update, you can run the Java ES installer to discover the few patches you need to apply and download them instead of downloading the entire patch cluster.
Java ES5 Update 1 supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) for x86 and x64 platforms, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) for x86 and x64 platforms, and all updates to these versions.
Sun recommends that you use the latest update of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
When installing Java ES 5 Update 1 on an x86 system running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 update 8, the "root" system user is not recognized.
Solution Before installing Java ES, first install the latest coreutils-4.5.3-28.4.i386.rpm and coreutils-4.5.3-28.4.x86_64.rpm from the Red Hat site.
Java ES5 Update 1 supports HP-UX 11i v1 (displayed as 11.11 by the unamecommand) on the PA-RISC 2.0 platform.
Before installing, configuring, and running Java ES components on HP-UX, you must install certain software updates and patches. The updates are:
Transport Optional Upgrade Release (TOUR) 3.1
GOLDQPK11i(B.11.11.0509.429) Sept 2005 Quality Pack
GOLDAPPS11i(B.11.11.0509.429)
GOLDBASE11i(B.11.11.0509.429)
The patches are:
PHSS_30966
PHCO_29328
PHKL_25842
PHNE_29445
These updates and patches are available from the HP IT Resource center, http://itrc.hp.com.
Java ES5 Update 1 supports the following versions of Microsoft Windows:
Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP4 and Data Center Server SP4
Windows 2003 Standard SP1 or later for x86 and x64 platforms, Windows 2003 Enterprise SP1 or later for x86 and x64 platforms, and Windows 2003 Data Center Server SP1 or later for x86 platform
Windows XP Professional SP2
For the supported editions of Windows 2003, Sun recommends that you use SP2 or later.
Platform virtualization is the ability to run multiple, unrelated guest operating systems in a contained environment on top of shared hardware. Due to the many benefits of platform virtualization, there are a spectrum of virtualization technologies and products available today.
Sun has tested and supports deployments of Java ES 5 and Java ES 5 Update 1 components running on Solaris 10 environments virtualized using the Logical Domains (LDoms) software, which was introduced in Solaris 10 11/06.
LDoms runs on UltraSPARC T1-based and T2-based servers. For information about LDoms, it capabilities, and its requirements, see the Logical Domains documentation collection (http://docs.sun.com/coll/ldom1.0).
If you deploy Java ES components in a supported operating system within a virtualized environment other than LDoms and you encounter a problem, you may be asked to demonstrate the problem in a non-virtualized environment before Sun can respond with service.
As with deployments in non-virtualized environments, you should allocate recommended resources (processor, memory, storage, and so on) to each virtual machine so as to ensure sufficient levels of application performance. See the component documentation for recommended and supported system requirements.
Web-based administrative interfaces provided by Java ES 5 Update 1 components support at least the following web browsers:
Firefox® 1.0.7 on Solaris 9 and 10, Windows 2000 and XP, Red Hat Linux 3 and 4, and Mac OS X
MozillaTM 1.7.12 on Solaris 9 and 10, Windows 2000 and XP, Red Hat Linux 3 and 4, HP-UX, and Mac OS X
NetscapeTMCommunicator 7.1 on Solaris 9 and 10, and HP-UX
Netscape Communicator 8.0.4 on Windows 2000 and XP
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 on Windows 2000
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP2 on Windows XP
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 on Windows XP
For information about the web browsers supported by the end user web interfaces provided by Java ES 5 Update 1 components, refer to the release notes for the component that provides the interface. Release notes for Java ES 5 Update 1 components are available at http://docs.sun.com/coll/1315.2. Also, see Component Release Notes.
On Solaris and Linux, Java Enterprise System is certified with and includes Java SE 5.0 Update 12 (1.5.0_12), and is certified with Java SE 6 for all components except the High Availability Session Store (HADB). On HP-UX, Java Enterprise System is certified with and includes Java SE 5.0 Update 3 (1.5.0_03). On Windows, Java Enterprise System is certified with and includes Java SE 5.0 Update 12 (1.5.0_12).
Additionally, the following items are compatible with Java SE 1.4.2:
Shared components
End user client applications
Public Java APIs
Specific components might support additional versions of Java SE or might have compatibility issues regarding certain versions of Java SE. For information, see the release notes for the component.
The following subsections describe issues regarding the backward compatibility of Java ES 5 Update 1 with respect to releases of Java ES prior to Java ES5. Additionally, the issues presented here are those that span multiple Java ES components or that pertain to the Java ES installer or uninstaller. For information about the backward compatibility of a specific component, refer to the compatibility information in the release notes for the specific component. See Component Release Notes for a list of component release notes.
Java ES 5 Update 1 is certified with Java SE 5.0 Update 12 (1.5.0_12). If the Java ES installer does not find this version of Java SE on a system, the installer installs this version and makes it available to Java ES components though the symbolic link /usr/jdk/entsys-j2se.
The version of Application Server 7 that shipped with Java ES 2004Q2 makes use of this symbolic link, but is not compatible with Java SE 5.0 Update 12. Thus, Application Server 7 stops functioning correctly after you install Java ES 5 Update 1 components.
Solution Java ES does not support a mixture of version 2004Q2 and version 5 Update 1 components on a single system. When upgrading a system from Java ES 2004Q2, you must upgrade all components. If you need access to Application Server 7 during the upgrade process, you can change its configuration to point to Java SE 1.4.2, which was installed with Java ES 2004Q2:
Login to Sun Java System Application Server 7 administration console.
Update Java settings for the admin server and every application server instance, changing Java Home to point to the Java SE 1.4.2 location. Remember to "Apply Changes" for every instance.
Stop all application server instances including the admin server.
Modify the asenv.conf file in the config subdirectory of Application Server 7, setting AS_JAVA to point to the Java SE 1.4.2 location.
Restart Application Server 7.
After using the Java ES installer to upgrade or install shared components, previous versions of Instant Messaging already installed on the system may no longer function correctly. Symptoms include the failure of the Instant Messaging multiplexor or server to start.
This issue arises because the Sun Java System Instant Messaging and Presence APIs (IMAPI) shared component of Java ES 5 Update 1 is not compatible with previous versions of Instant Messaging. The Java ES installer installs or upgrades IMAPI in these cases:
You install Portal Server
You install Service Registry
You install or upgrade All Shared Components
Thus, this issue is limited to these cases.
Solution Upgrade Instant Messaging to version 7.2.
The following information pertains to the installation process using the Java Enterprise System installer.
If you remove component packages or RPMs directly, the next time the installer is run, it may see a component as still being installed and not behave correctly.
Solution If you have already removed component packages or RPMs manually, you must still use the Java ES uninstaller to uninstall the component.
If the system on which you run the Java ES installer does not have sufficient swap space to run the installer, the CLI mode installer (./installer -nodisplay) continues to run after displaying an error message that includes:
com.sun.entsys.dre.DREException: Not enough space |
Solution If you see this message, exit the installer. Then, allocate more swap space or free up existing swap space before running the installer again.
If you run the Java ES 5 Update 1 installer in silent mode and specify a statefile with an invalid id (such as from a previous version of Java ES), the installer does not install any software and it exits without reporting an error. The installer log file contains the message:
Exit Installation due to Error or User has selected exit on Warning. |
SolutionReplace the id in the statefile with a valid id generated by the Java ES 5 Update 1 installer. Use this command to generate the id:
./installer -id |
If you run the installer with the —no option and stop installation on the Installing page, the installer exits, throwing an InvocationTargetException:
InvocationTargetException thrown in method cancelConfirmed in class com.sun.wizards.core.WizardTreeManager java.lang.NullPointerException at ... |
Solution None.
When installing Java ES in a whole root zone on earlier versions of Solaris 10, the installer might display one of these messages:
Unsupported components in zone Following components required by the selected components, are not supported in local zone and they can not be installed directly into the local zone. Please install these components from the global zone before proceeding the installation SharedComponent |
or
The Sun Web Console packages that are installed on your system have a defect that is preventing Java ES from installing in a while root non-global zone. In order to rectify this situation you must upgrade the Sun Web Console packages in the global zone before installing Java ES in a whole root zone. Please see the Java ES Release Notes (bug 6451030) and Installation Guide for further information. |
Both of these messages appear because the Sun Java Web Console packages already installed contain an incorrect attribute setting that prevents the installer from upgrading them. The Sun Java Web Console packages that contain the incorrect attribute setting were shipped with Solaris 10, Solaris 10 1/06, Solaris 10 6/06, and Java ES 2005Q4.
Solution To resolve this issue, you must upgrade the Sun Java Web Console packages in the global zone before you install Java ES in a whole root zone. You have two options:
In the global zone, run the installer and install only All Shared Components. This upgrades the Sun Java Web Console packages and fixes the zones attribute, but also installs all the other Java ES 5 shared components into the global zone and propagates them into all non-global zones. This might not be acceptable for your situation and is not recommended if you have a previous version of Java ES installed in a whole root zone.
In the global zone, upgrade only the Sun Java Web Console packages. To do this, log into the global zone and navigate to the Java ES 5 installation directory for Solaris. As root, do the following:
cd Product/sunwebconsole ./setup |
The setup script upgrades Sun Java Web Console in the global zone and propagates the upgrade to all non-global zones.
When installing Java ES in a sparse-root zone, the installer checks the global zone for components that you must upgrade in the global zone before you can install in the sparse-root zone. However, the installer does not report the version of Application Server bundled with Solaris 10 as a component to upgrade.
Solution Before installing Java ES in a sparse-root zone, first run the installer in the global zone and upgrade Application Server if the installer shows it as Upgradable.
When you install Java ES, the installer creates the symbolic link /usr/jdk/entsys-j2se so that components can access the same version of Java SE. After installing Java ES components in the global zone, you might get errors regarding Web Console when you try to boot whole-root zones because the Web Console packages are propagated to the whole-root zone, but the symbolic link upon which they depend it not propagated.
Solution Create the symbolic link in the whole-root zone manually by entering the following command in the global zone (assuming Java SE 5 is the version installed in the global zone)d:
ln -s /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.5.0 zone-path/root/usr/jdk/entsys-j2se |
where zone-path is the path you specified when creating the whole-root zone.
The Java ES installer interacts with the HP-UX depot mechanism to find installed components, check for dependencies, and install the bits. The client-server architecture of the depot mechanism leads to slower system response time, and the repeated interaction makes the overall installation process noticeably slower than on other platforms.
Solution None.
If you use the wcswap commands to swap the container Web Console deploys to from tomcat to Application Server, Web Console fails to start because no domain is created for it in Application Server.
Solution Do not use Application Server as the container for Web Console on Linux or Windows. If you have already attempted to swap to Application Server as the container, you can use the wcswap command a second time to swap back to tomcat as the container for Web Console.
Solution Use one of the following workarounds:
Remove the Sun Java Web Console version already installed on the Windows machine before actually proceeding with Java ES 5 installation.
Re-register the applications that were registered with previous Sun Java Web Console version again with the newer version in order to continue accessing those applications
On the Windows platform, installing with Install all in Configure Automatically During Installation mode fails unpredictably in post configuration stages on machine with low memory.
Solution Use one of the following workarounds:
Optimize your Windows OS Virtual memory setup.
Maximize free RAM before you start the Java ES installer Stop all unecessary programs and services.
Do a selective install, use the Custom option to install products selectively.
This problem occurs when certain DLLs are in the Windows system32 folder, such as libnspr4.dll, nss3, and smime.
These DLLs conflict with Java ES versions of DLLs that are installed in the install-dir/share/lib and prevent proper functioning of Java ES servers.
Solution Rename these DLLs in the system32 folder so Java ES servers will use the correct versions of these DLLs.
Renaming these DLLs could cause some legacy applications that installed these DLLs in system32 folder not to function.
Solution On Windows XP Professional, the guest account must be disabled.
The registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\ForceGuest must be set to 0 in order for authentication to succeed.
If the system has a file descriptor limit of set too low, some components cannot be configured correctly. The installer does not report such configuration failures, but the configuration log files show the failures.
Solution Before installation, set the file descriptor limit to a high value, such as 1024 or 2048. After installation, you can reset the file descriptor limit back to its previous value.
The installer should check if shared components is an evaluation component and replace it if in fact it is an evaluation component.
Solution Ensure that the workstation does not have an evaluation component installed before beginning an installation.
Please note that log messages are not always valid. For example, the “no software was installed” message appears even if some (but not all) component products are installed after an error of some sort.
When a component product is selected, the installer automatically selects to install any dependent component products. The component product selection page does not indicate that the dependencies have been selected along with the original component product.
Solution None.
The window for certain languages like German is not wide enough to display the entire interface. As a result, text of elements like hints get truncated at the right hand side or at the bottom.
Solution Manually resize the window.
When installing Access Manager on HP-UX, the installation fails, indicating that Access Manager could not find the gettext binary.
Solution Download getext 0.14.6 or later and install it.
The problem of web server startup failures can be attributed to the Access Manager's SDK configuration. In the current scenario, the AMConfig.properties file contains the wrong information and causes a series a web server startup failures. The following variables do not have the correct information:
com.iplanet.am.directory.host
com.iplanet.am.server.host
com.iplanet.am.console.host
com.iplanet.am.profile.host
com.iplanet.am.naming.url
com.iplanet.am.notification.url
Solution On your node B, where Access Manager SDK is installed with Web Server, modify the <Web_Server_Instance_dir>/config/server.xml file and add the required Access Manager JAR files to the classpath.
To improve the search performance, Directory Server has several new indexes. Therefore, after you install Access Manager with an existing directory information tree (DIT), rebuild the Directory Server indexes by running the db2index.pl script. For example: # ./db2index.pl -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w password -n userRoot
The db2index.pl script is available in the DS-install-directory/slapd-hostname/ directory.
If Directory Server is already installed and has only LDAPS (SSL) enabled, the installation of Access Manager will fail. To install Access Manager, first enable LDAP (no SSL) for Directory Server. After the Access Manager installation is finished, you can disable LDAP and leave only LDAPS.
In passwords (such as for amadmin) and the Directory Server root suffix, Access Manager does not support a single quote (\q). The back-slash (\\), however, is supported.
When you run the Java Enterprise System installer, the installation of Access Manager fails if Directory Server is configured to require users to change their passwords the first time they log in.
Solution Set the Directory Server password reset policy to “off”.
Although the classpath and other Access Manager web container environment variables are updated during installation, the installation process does not restart the web container. If you try to login to Access Manager after installation before the web container is restarted, the following error is returned:
Authentication Service is not initialized. Contact your system administrator. |
Solution Restart the web container before you login to Access Manager. Directory Server must also be running before you login.
Access Manager does not update the Application Server domain.xml properly with JVM options and server classpath . This is known to occur in the following scenario:
You install and configure Application Server and Directory Server.
You create a node agent.
You create a non-default Application Server instance.
You install Access Manager in "Configure Later" mode.
You edit the amsamplesilent file and then run it using amconfig.
When you try to log in to Access Manager with a browser, an error message is displayed.
Solution Before installing Access Manager, edit the amsamplesilent file so that the container block includes the following information:
AS81_HOME=/opt/SUNWappserver/appserver AS81_PROTOCOL=$SERVER_PROTOCOL AS81_HOST=$SERVER_HOST #AS81_HOST=$DISTAUTH_HOST AS81_PORT=$SERVER_PORT AS81_ADMINPORT=$ADMIN_PORT AS81_ADMIN=admin AS81_ADMINPASSWD="$ADMINPASSWD" AS81_INSTANCE=server1 AS81_DOMAIN=domain1 AS81_INSTANCE_DIR=/var/opt/SUNWappserver/nodeagents/nodename/server-instance AS81_DOCS_DIR=/var/opt/SUNWappserver/nodeagents/nodename/server-instance/docroot AS81_ADMIN_IS_SECURE=true |
After the edits are completed, run the amconfig command:
./amconfig -s amsamplesilent |
If you install the Application Server Domain Administration Server, the Application Server Node Agent is listed as installed and compatible in subsequent installation sessions. This issue arises because the Domain Administration Server and Node Agent use the same set of packages and differ only in configuration.
Solution None. The software to support node agents is installed. To create a node agent, use the asadmin create-node-agent command. See create-node-agent(1) for more information.
The installer prompts you for the “server name” for the Application Server. However, the installer uses the actual host name of the machine regardless of what you input in the text field.
Solution If the server name is different from the server’s host name, become superuser and type the following in the domain directory of interest (the “server root” directory):
# find . -type f -exec grep -l $HOSTNAME {} \\ ;
Then, change the file contents appropriately.
On Linux, attempts to start a domain generate an exception that refers to libstdc++. This occurs because Application Server requires certain compatibility libraries on Linux that are not installed by default.
Solution Install the following compatibility libraries:
compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.build.i386.rpm
compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.build.i386.rpm
compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.build.i386.rpm
These libraries are not installed by default, but are available in the Red Hat Linux distribution. Note that the value of build may differ on different versions of Red Hat Linux.
If a Windows machine is not connected to the network, the HADB instance does not start.
Solution Connect Windows machine to the network.
Directory Server 5.1 is bundled with Solaris 9. Therefore, after you install Directory Server from Java ES 5 Update 1, two versions exist on the system: version 5.1 from Solaris 9, and version 6.2 from Java ES.
When you use Directory Server on such systems, you must make sure you use the command set associated with the version of Directory Server you are trying to administer.
If you are running Solaris 10 08/07 or a Solaris 10 system with Solaris patch 120037–19 (x86) or 120473–10 (sparc) or newer, you might get an error of the following form when you try to connect to Directory Server Control Center:
Could not contact the DSCC agent on hostname. Use the command cacaoadm to check that DSCC agent is installed and running on port port-number. |
This error appears when the cacao process the Directory Server Control Center communicates with is owned by a non-root user, and the error appears even though Directory Server Control Center is running.
Solution Install patch 123896–14 (x86) or 123893–04 (sparc) or newer.
The Java ES installer allows you to select any and all components for installation along with the Sun Java System Monitoring Console. However, due a limitation of the Monitoring Console, it does not run when installed on the same host or in the same Solaris zone as the components that it monitors. If Monitoring Console is selected with other components, the installation will not fail, but you will not be able to configure and run the Monitoring Console.
Solution Install the Monitoring Console on a dedicated host where no other Java ES components are installed. When running the installer, do not select the Monitoring Console for installation when installing other components. For more details, see the procedure To Install the Monitoring Console with the Java ES Installer in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide.
Alternatively, you can install the Monitoring Console on the same physical machine as other Java ES components by creating a dedicated logical host in a local zone with the Solaris 10 operating system. For more details, see the procedure To Install the Monitoring Console in a Solaris Zone in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide.
If you wish to install Java ES components on a host where you previously installed and configured Monitoring Console, follow the procedure To Unconfigure the Monitoring Console in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide
When the Monitoring Console is not installed in the default location, it cannot be found by the Web Console and therefore cannot be launched.
Solution Do not specify a location other than the default when installing Monitoring Console.
After installing the Sun Java System Monitoring Console, the Java ES installer does not automatically configure and start the Monitoring Console.
Solution You must manually run the commands to configure and start the Monitoring Console after installation. See the procedures for Installing the Monitoring Console in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide, and then the procedure Starting the Monitoring Console in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide.
On Microsoft Windows, Portal Server can only be used as an evaluation platform or as a development platform. It cannot be used as a deployment platform.
If you use the Java ES installer to install Portal Server on Microsoft Windows, the resulting installuation does not function correctly.
Solution Do not use the Java ES installer to install Portal Server on Windows. Instead, download Portal Server 7.1 Update 1 from the Sun Download Center at http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=465e130d. Follow the instructions in the ReadMe file that accompanies the download to produce a functioning installation of Portal Server.
While using the IP address in the netlet, if the reverse lookup entry for a particular host is not configured in the DHCP server, then the operation associated with that host does not work.
For example, if nslookup.exe ipaddress fails to return the host name then the netlet operations will not work for these IP addresses.
Solution Use host names instead of IP addresses.
The problem occurs because the filter entry for the AMLControllerFilter filter is commented in the web.xml file of the Access Manager web application.
Solution In the web.xml file of the Access Manager web application, uncomment the AMLControllerFilter filter entry.
Clicking on the help icon from the SampleIFrame Channel produces “HTTP Status 404 — /portal/docs/en/desktop/iframechann.htm” is not available.
Solution None. No help is provided with iFrame provider.
During installation and uninstallation of Portal Server, the installer and uninstaller appear to hang.
Solution Ignore the apparent inactivity and wait for the Portal Server installation or uninstallation process, which can take up to 45 minutes on a low-end system, to complete.
If you install Portal Server in one installer session, and then install Portal Server Secure Remote Access in a subsequent installer session, the installer does not validate the Access Host value you provide on the Portal Server: Secure Remote Access: Configure Access to Portal page in the subsequent session.
Solution None.
If you install Portal Server in one installer session, and then install Portal Server Secure Remote Access in a subsequent installer session, the installer does not validate the Log User Password value you provide on the Portal Server: Secure Remote Access: Configure Access to Portal page in the subsequent session.
As a consequence, the portal.fabric logs include errors such as PSFB_CSPFCO312: Incorrect LogUserPassword Entered and PSFB_CSPFCO189: Validation of gateway Data Failed.
Solution None.
When installing Sun Cluster 10 on Solaris 9, update 6 for the x86 platform, the install fails because it requires a patch that is not applicable on update 6 (patch 117714–06).
Solution None. On the x86 platform, Sun Cluster requires Solaris 9, update 7 or later.
x86 machines running Solaris 10 fail to come up in cluster mode due to changes made for the Solaris boot architecture project. The following error messages are displayed when the machine boots up:
Use is subject to license terms. NOTICE: Can't open /etc/cluster/nodeid NOTICE: BOOTING IN NON CLUSTER MODE NOTICE: NO PCI PROP NOTICE: NO PCI PROP Configuring devices. Hostname: pvyom1 devfsadm: minor_init failed for module /usr/lib/devfsadm/linkmod/SUNW_scmd_link.so Loading smf(5) service descriptions: 24/24 /usr/cluster/bin/scdidadm: Could not load DID instance list. Cannot open /etc/cluster/ccr/did_instances. Not booting as part of a cluster /usr/cluster/bin/scdidadm: Could not load DID instance list. Cannot open /etc/cluster/ccr/did_instances. Note: path_to_inst might not be updated. Please 'boot -r' as needed to update. |
Solution Perform these steps:
Add /etc/cluster/nodeid to /boot/solaris/filelist.ramdisk.
Enter these commands:
# bootadm update-archive # reboot -- -r |
Attempting to boot up all nodes of a 16 node cluster at the same time results in node panics and nodes hanging waiting for quorum.
This bug was caused due to incorrect configuration of the private interconnect switches. It is required to disable spanning tree for the switch ports used for the Sun Cluster private interconnects. This was not done for the switches on the 16 node cluster and hence this bug. The cluster cannot be brought online due to this bug.
In order to resolve this issue it is required to disable the spanning tree for the switch ports used for the Sun Cluster private interconnects.
Solution None.
While installing Sun Cluster localized packages, the following warning message is displayed in the Java ES installation log. Localized packages are named SUNW*scspmu. This warning message does not appear when localized components are not selected to install.
Warning: smreg is obsolete and is preserved only for compatibility with legacy console applications. Use wcadmin instead. Type "man wcadmin" or "wcadmin --help" for more information. |
This warning is generated because Sun Cluster localization packages use the smreg command instead of wcadmin which is a new command in Sun Java(TM) Web Console 3.x. This message could mislead customers by implying that they need to perform another step to complete the Sun Cluster installation.
Solution This warning does not result from an installation error. You can safely ignore this warning message.
The installer gives you the option of choosing to install the Sun Cluster HA Application Server Agent with Application Server and HADB 8.1. However, the HA Application Server Agent does not support Application Server and HADB 8.1. As a result, you cannot configure HA Application Server.
Solution Do not install the HA Application Server Agent with Application Server and HADB 8.1.
Java Enterprise System 2005Q1 includes the Sun Cluster Data Service for the Sun Java System Directory Server 5 2004Q2. If you need the Sun Cluster Data Service for Sun Java System Directory Server 5.0 or 5.1 or for Netscape HTTP, version 4.1.6, it is available in the Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Services 10/03 release. To request this release, contact your Sun customer service representative.
Instead, it is installed from the Java Enterprise System 1 Accessory CD, volume 3. Also, the data services are not installed from the agents CD. Instead, they are installed from the Java Enterprise System 1 Accessory CD, volume 3.
If you have installed a Sun Cluster Agent prior to running the Java Enterprise System installer, the installer does not allow you to install additional agents.
Solution Install additional Sun Cluster Agents using pkgadd.
After installing Web Server in eval config mode on Windows, Web Server services are not started automatically.
Solution Manually start the Web Server services.
Solution Back-up all your configuration files. Then, remove the install directory before installing Web Server using the Java Enterprise System installer.
When installing Web Server in CLI mode, if you specify a port value that is out of range, the installer displays the following confusing message:
EntSysResources:webServerInstancePanel-OUtOfRangeAdminPort-Error-CLI |
Solution None.
After installing Web Server in eval config mode on Windows operating system, Web Proxy Server services are not started automatically.
Solution Manually start the Web Proxy Server services.
The Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Upgrade Guide for UNIX provides instructions for upgrading to Java ES 5 Update 1 on the Solaris and Linux platforms. The issues in the following sections describe situations that are not covered in the Upgrade Guide, and so should be used only in conjuction with the Upgrade Guide and not as a replacement for it.
Both the Upgrade Guide and the issues in the following sections refer to Java ES releases by release version and release number. The following table shows how release versions and release numbers are related:
Release Version |
Release Number |
---|---|
Java ES 5 Update 1 |
Release 5 Update 1 |
Java ES 5 |
Release 5 |
Java ES 2005Q4 |

Release 2 |
Java ES 2003Q4 |
Release 1 |
After the Access Manager upgrade process from version 6.1 to version 6.2 is finished, the upgrade log indicates that the DB based logging was not handled correctly.
Solution None. The Access Manager upgrade process from version 6.1 to version 6.2 does not support backing up of the DB log tables.
After upgrading any Java ES component to Java ES 5 Update 1 on a system running Release 3 or Release 4 Application Server (version 8.1), Application Server reports errors when you compile JSP pages.
Solution Upgrade Application Server to Java ES 5 Update 1, or apply the following patch to Application Server 8.1:
On Solaris: 119166–17
On Linux: 119168–17
Solution Refer to the following publication for the latest upgrade documentation regarding this issue:Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Upgrade Guide for UNIX
After upgrading Application Server from Java ES 3 on Linux, Access Manager stops working, and the server.log file indicates there was an error staring amlcontroller.
Solution Install sun-jss (JSS 4) and sun-jss3 manually:
Enter the command rpm -qa | grep sun-jss to check for the presence of sun-jss and sun-jss3.
If sun-jss is missing, manually add it:
rpm -Uhv download-root/Linux_x86/Product/shared_components/Packages/sun-jss-4.2.4-4.i386.rpm |
If sun-jss3 is missing, manually add it:
rpm -Uhv download-root/Linux_x86/Product/shared_components/Packages/sun-jss3-3.1.11-1.i386.rpm |
When upgrading Portal Server 7.1 to Portal Server 7.1 Update 2 using patches, various portal-related web applications might not function correctly after running psupdate in a non-English locale.
Solution Rerun the psupdate script in the English locale:
Display and note down the current values of the $LC_ALL and $LANG shell variables:
echo $LC_ALL echo $LANG |
Set these variables to values for the English locale:
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 |
Rerun the psupdate script:
psupdate -a -i |
Restore the values of $LC_ALL and $LANG:
export LC_ALL=value-noted-in-step-1 export LANG=value-noted-in-step-1 |
If Portal Server is deployed to a version of Web Server that you are upgrading to Java ES 5 Update 1, you must also upgrade Portal Server.
Because there is no way on Windows to upgrade Portal Server to Java ES 5 Update 1, you cannot also upgrade Portal Server when upgrading Web Server. Instead, you must migrate Portal Server to useApplication Server as its container before you attempt to upgrade Web Server.
When upgrading Portal Server IFR (Interim Feature Release) 7.0 2005Q4 deployed in Web Server, you must upgrade components in a nonstandard sequence. See the Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Upgrade Guide for UNIX for more information.
After upgrading Portal Server 7.0 and Web Server, attempts to create a new community in the Portal Server console generate an error.
Solution Follow these steps:
Log in to the Web Server administration console.
Click Configurations.
Select the configuration of the Portal Server instance that is running.
Click the Java tab.
View the Path seetings for Class Path Prefix.
Replace /opt/SUNWcacao/lib/cacao_cacao.jar with /usr/lib/cacao/lib/cacao_caca0.jar.
Save changes and exit the administration console.
After upgrading Portal Server 7.0, communities that existed in the Developer Sample are not longer usable.
Solution Change the file /var/opt/SUNWportal/portals/portal1/desktop/default/SearchProvider/dbMenu.jsp as follows:
Old: |
|
|
New: |
|
If you enabled the monitoring functionality of Instant Messaging in Java ES 2005Q1 or 2005Q4, you will need to manually upgrade your properties file after you upgrade to Java ES 5 Update 1.
Solution After you have upgraded your Instant Messaging instance on a given host, edit the new mfwk.properties file to include the configuration parameters you wish to preserve from your old agent.properties file.
When upgrading from Java ES 3 on Solaris 9 for x86, it is possible to have two versions of cacao running: the Java ES 3 version in support of Instant Messaging, and the Java ES 5 Update 1 version in support of upgraded components. In this situation, the psupgrade script used to upgrade Portal Server fails.
Solution Stop the Java ES 3 version of cacao before running the psupgrade script:
/opt/SUNWcacao/bin/cacaoadm stop |
After running psupgrade, restart the Java ES 3 version of cacao:
/opt/SUNWcacao/bin/cacaoadm start |
Whenever a product component is installed or upgraded in Configure Manually After Installation mode, the product's shortcuts are created only after the product is configured manually.
Message Queue is not affected by this problem.
Solution None.
This section describes the known issues in the Monitoring Console and in the Monitoring Framework. The Monitoring Framework is a shared component that is automatically installed with other components to enable monitoring.
The following patches are required to prevent certain known issues in the Monitoring Framework. These patches are normally included in other patch bundles required for Java ES or in updated versions of the Solaris operating environment. However, you should verify the existence of these patches or their replacements on any host where you will monitor a Java ES product component:
Table 1 Patches for Monitoring in the Solaris Operating Environment
Solaris Version |
Patch Number |
---|---|
Solaris 9 Sparc Platform (up to and including version s9u7_06) |
114344-17 |
Solaris 9 i386 Platform (up to and including version s9u7_06) |
114345-08 (obsoleted by: 117172-17), 118559-28 (or later) |
Solaris 10 Sparc Platform (up to and including version s10_58) |
114344-17 |
Solaris 10 i386 Platform (up to and including version s10_58) |
114345-08 (obsoleted by: 117172-17), 118855-15 (or later) |
For the HP-UX operating system, the patches required for monitoring are included among those described in HP-UX Requirements and Issues.
When adding a new host to be monitored, the Monitoring Console uses SSL to secure the connection, but does not show the certificate presented by the selected host. Because the Monitoring Console transmits the host's root password to the node agent, there is a vulnerability to an attacker forging the IP address of the intended host and receiving the password. The risk of this happening is very low because most node agents run on hosts already within a secure network.
Solution If your node agent hosts are not within a secure network, you should verify their authenticity before adding them as new hosts in the Monitoring Console. To verify the authenticity of a host, log in to the host and make sure you recognize its configuration and its file system. For a UNIX host, you can log in with ssh to view the certificate information.
Objects contained in a product are referred to in Monitoring Console as an “application server.” This terminology should not be confused with Sun Java System Application Server.
Solution In the context of the Monitoring Console, an application server refers to the running instance of an installed Java ES component.
Displaying and switching pages in the Monitoring Console can take up to 30 seconds in some cases.
Solution Run the Monitoring Console on a powerful host with no other applications.
The Monitoring Console cannot enable or disable monitoring on a per-component basis.
Solution You must enable and disable the monitoring of a component through each component's own mechanism. For instructions, see the component–specific sections in Chapter 2, Enabling and Configuring the Monitoring Framework, in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide.
When a monitored component crashes or is stopped normally, its monitored objects may not be removed from the node agent and remain visible in the left-hand tree of the Monitoring Console. Similarly, if you stop an entire node agent, the host node may not be removed from the left-hand tree. This issue occurs intermittently.
Solution When you stop or restart a server instance, you may need to restart the node agent, the master agent and the Monitoring Console. If you stop a host and its node agent, you may need to restart the master agent and the Monitoring Console. The procedure To Restart a Node Agent in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide describes how to do both.
When a host is removed from the Monitoring Console, the monitoring rules and alarms associated with its monitored components are not deleted automatically. This allows persistency of the rules and alarm states if you add the same host again.
Solution If you do not plan on adding that host again, use the Rule dialog to find and delete all rules associated with the host. Alarms that exist when the host is removed may be acknowledged but will remain in the Monitoring Console because the monitored attribute that triggered the alarm can no longer be accessed. To avoid leaving alarms in the acknowledged state, resolve all alarm conditions in a monitored component and acknowledge the alarms in the Monitoring Console before removing the host.
If the schedule interval is set for a rule, you cannot disable the rule.
Solution Delete the rule instead of disabling it.
The following list tracks other known issues with the Monitoring Console.
Various tables are not sorted by default
Host linked from “Objects Using This Installed Product” should not be unknown object
Using the AppServer plug-in, the “objects contained by this server” should not include children of children
Enable and disable functionality is not working correctly in the table of hosts
Caption and description fields displayed for Statistics and Settings objects but not for base objects
Selecting an object and clicking on Monitoring Rule->New should not require the user to select the object again
The names of JVM objects listed for a given host are inconsistent
CMM_Cluster objects created by Application Server are not displayed anywhere
List of observable objects in the New Rule dialog is not clear
Object and Operational Status of Portal, Web, and Application Server objects display as unknown
Enterprise Java Beans deployed in Application Server should have more descriptive names
The names of attributes in Application Server monitoring objects are impossible to use
Internal Application Server configuration changes not reflected in the Monitoring Console
Monitoring Console should be able to expose a domain view
In the de locale, the index for online help is inconsistent with the English version
The Show Objects With Status function does not work when Show Selected Object is set
Removing schedule intervals from a rule fails with a script error
Some strings are not localized in the JVM-General table
In the Spanish user interface, the copyright string is not localized
Many strings are not localized in the Monitoring Console user interface
Changing the schedule interval of a rule from 0:00 to 0:00 deletes the rule itself
Components that rely on C libraries to interface with the Monitoring Framework may display more slowly in the Monitoring Console when they run in the Linux operating environment.
Solution None.
Inter-process communication between components that rely on C libraries and the node agent on the same host is not secure. By default, communication uses the loopback interface, thereby reducing the security risk.
Solution None.
Components that rely on Java libraries to interface with the Monitoring Framework may experience performance issues when accessed through SNMP.
Solution None.
Due to a bug in Solaris 9, packets addressed to an IPv4 address are not delivered to listener on an IPv6 socket. This interrupts the discovery mechanism between node agents and the components to be monitored on that host.
Solution Force the node agent's JVM to listen on IPv4 sockets with the following commands:
cacaoadm stop oldvalue=`cacaoadm get-param java-flags --value` cacaoadm set-param java-flags="${oldvalue} -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" |
Then restart the node agent, the master agent, and the Monitoring Console with the procedure To Restart a Node Agent in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide.
If the time on the node agent and master agent hosts is too far out of sync, adding that node in the Monitoring Console will fail. The error log of the master agent's Monitoring Framework will report a severe error “during JRMP connection establishment.”
Solution Set the time on either host so they are synchronous.
When many monitoring rules are created in parallel in a node agent on the HP-UX operating system, thread numbers in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) may exceed kernel parameter limits and cause an OutOfMemory exception.
Solution Download and run the HPjconfig tool, as described in the procedure To Optimize Kernel Parameters for Monitoring Framework on HP-UX in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Monitoring Guide.
When you run the mfwkadm command on Windows, the following error is generated:
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. |
Solution Comment out the fourth line of the file C:\Program Files\Sun\JavaES5\share\mfwk\bin\masetup.bat by adding REM at the start of the line.
Before: |
|
|
After: |
|
The following list tracks other known issues with the Monitoring Framework.
On Linux, discovery does not work when IPv6 is enabled
When installation is done in a remote session, the installer logs are stored in the temp directory.
If the system reboots during installation or uninstallation, the temp is deleted. Therefore, the log files are not available when you click the View Log button.
Solution None.
When you try to uninstall some Java ES 5 Update 1 patches, an error message appears, indicating that Sun Java(TM) Enterprise System 5.msi is not in its original installation location, C:\t\Windows.
Solution Download Java ES 5 and unzip it into the installation location mentioned in the error message. Then, after uninstalling the Java ES patches, you can delete the downloaded and unzipped files.
When uninstalling Access Manager, its monitoring module descriptor is not unregistered. This problem occurs only after Access Manager has been upgraded.
Solution Use cacaoadm to unregister the com.sun.cmm.am descriptor:
Confirm the presence of the com.sun.cmm.am descriptor:
# cacaoadm list-modules List of modules registered: com.sun.cacao.agent_logging 1.0 ... com.sun.cmm.am 1.0 ... |
Unregister the descriptor:
# cacaoadm unregister-module com.sun.cmm.am.xml |
Restart cacao:
cacaoadm restart |
Confirm that com.sun.cmm.am has been unregistered:
# cacaoadm list-modules List of modules registered: com.sun.cacao.agent_logging 1.0 ... |
(com.sun.cmm.am 1.0 should no longer appear in the list of registered modules.)
Starting at the release of Java ES 5, Sun adopted a new sustaining model to simplify the task of discovering, downloading, and applying patches to Java ES components. This model consists of two primary features:
Patch clusters containing the latest appropriate patches for all Java ES components
Keyword tagging of individual component patches
Patch Clusters. For several platforms supported by Java ES, you can download a patch cluster containing the latest patches for the versions of components delivered in Java ES 5, including the patches that bring components up to the Java ES 5 Update 1 level. These patch clusters are updated on an ongoing basis as components deliver new patches.
To acquire one of these patch clusters:
Go to http://sunsolve.sun.com.
Click “Patches and Updates”.
Click “Recommended Patch Clusters”.
Locate the patch cluster beginning with “Java ES Accumulated” that applies to your OS version and processor architecture and download it.
Keyword Tagging. Beginning with the release of Java ES 5, any patch to any component version included in a Java ES release is tagged in its README file with a keyword indicating that the patch applies to the Java ES release. For Java ES 5 and update releases, the keyword tag is java_es-5. Due to this keyword tagging, you can quickly find all the individual component patches for Java ES 5 and update releases using the PatchFinder feature of SunSolve by entering the java_es-5 keyword.
You can also get patches for Java ES on Solaris 10 using Sun Connection. For more information, see http://www.sun.com/service/sunconnection.
Some components of Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 contain any files that you can redistribute. For information about these files, see the release notes for the components you are using.
