Internal Error on accessing Admin Server. Workaround: If Web Server 6.1 SP4 is installed on a Windows machine which has Directory Server (versions 5.2 patch 3 or lower) installed, you may run into problems with the Web Server Admin Server. It is advisable to install the Web Server and Directory Server on separate machines to avoid issues. This issue is applicable only on Windows platforms. |

Problem using HttpServerAdmin to create a JNDI resource containing an LDAP DN containing commas. Workaround: For HttpServerAdmin to escape the `,' in the property use `\\' as escape character (and use `\' in Windows platforms). In the property java.naming.provider.url=ldap://localhost:389/ou=loggingQueues,ou=tms,ou=services,ou=abc the `,' are escaped as shown here: -property java.naming.provider.url=ldap://localhost:389/ou=loggingQueues\\,ou=tms\\,ou=services\\,ou=abc |

|

The date stamp in the log filename is not consistent with the date stamp in the log file entries. Workaround: If the date in the log filename extension should match the date of the log entries themselves, configure the server to rotate the log files at 23:59, the end of the day. |
|

Can't get REMOTE_USER variable when authenticated by .htaccess. Workaround: If you enable .htaccess files, the server checks for .htaccess files before serving resources. The server looks for .htaccess files in the same directory as the resource and in that directory's parent directories, up to and including the document root. For example, if the Primary Document Directory is set to /sun/server/docs and a client requests /sun/server/docs/reports/index.html, the server will check for .htaccess files at /sun/server/docs/reports/.htaccess and /sun/server/docs/.htaccess. Note that the server's Additional Document Directories and CGI Directory functionality allows an administrator to define alternate document roots. The existence of alternate document roots affects .htaccess file processing. For example, consider a server with the Primary Document Directory set to /sun/server/docs and a CGI program at /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin/program.cgi. If you enable CGI as a File Type, the server will evaluate the contents of both /sun/server/docs/.htaccess and /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin/.htaccess when a client issues a request for the CGI program. However, if you instead configure a CGI Directory at /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin, the server will inspect /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin/.htaccess but not /sun/server/docs/.htaccess. This occurs because specifying /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin as a CGI Directory marks it as an alternate document root. |

The End User Administration feature (under Distributed Administration in the Administration interface) is no longer supported. |
|

Inconsistent look and feel to the pages in the Admin GUI. |

The Add Server page in the Admin GUI disappears in Netscape 7.0 when insufficient information is entered. Workaround: Enter complete information on the Add Server page before clicking OK. If necessary, reload the page to restore the Add Server GUI, or click another page or another tab and then navigate back to the Add Server page. This problem occurs only in Netscape 7.0. |
|

The word `null' is incorrectly displayed on an alert message. This displays when editing directory services in the Pick Directory for Virtual Server page in the Virtual Server Manager. |
|
4905808 |
Super users cannot access the Administration interface after enabling distributed administration. Workaround: After enabling distributed administration, create a user in LDAP with the same administration user name and password as that of `superuser'. |
|
4908694 |
Default link not working for logging settings. The Default link on the Logging Settings for Virtual Server page does not set the default path, but rather acts as a reset button. |
|

When editing a JDBC resource, the properties page retains values after they’ve been deleted. |
|

.shtml files are parsed when they shouldn’t be. This issue pertains to the Parse HTML page on the Content Management tab in the Class Manager. The .shtml files will be parsed even when settings on this page are configured so that they shouldn’t be. For example, if you specify `Yes', with a exec tag and `All HTML files', .shtml files will still also be parsed. |

The sun-web.xml file bundled with the Web Server points to the wrong DTD location. Correction: The correct location is http://www.sun.com/software/dtd/appserver/sun-web-app_2_3-1.dtd. |
|

JSP applications are not accessible from WS6.1 when passthrough plug-in is configured. Workaround: Change the line from the service directive of passthrough: From: Service type="magnus-internal/passthrough" fn="service-passthrough"servers="http://server:port" To: Service fn="service-passthrough" servers="http://server:port" |
