Configuration Requirements

The following section provides requirements for BEA products supported on this configuration:

 

Known Issues

Serial Version UID Mismatch

A Serial Version UID Mismatch Issue may be encountered if you deploy an application on a latest JVM, but compiled with an earlier JDK release.

Workaround: To be compatible with the serialization of previously compiled applications, modify the <BEA_HOME>/Weblogic92/common/bin/commEnv.sh file to include the following command:

JAVA_OPTIONS="$JAVA_OPTIONS -Dcom.sun.xml.namespace.QName.useCompatibleSerialVersionUID=1.0"

Alternatively, you can use the command line option:

export JAVA_OPTIONS="$JAVA_OPTIONS -Dcom.sun.xml.namespace.QName.useCompatibleSerialVersionUID=1.0"

Note: If you intend to deploy new applications with previously compiled applications, they must be recompiled as necessary to have the same Serial Version UID.

Known Issues When Using the Azul Virtual Machine

A serial version UID mismatch is encountered when using WLS 9.2

Workaround: Create a Master Azul arguments file azul.java.vminitargs.post in Azul's JAVA_HOME if its not present and include: 

 -Dcom.sun.xml.namespace.QName.useCompatibleSerialVersionUID=1.0
