Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.2 Release Notes for Microsoft Windows

Setting Debug Statement for access.failure Causes Hanging in Application Server Startup (ID 6180095)

Setting the java.security.debug option for the JVM will cause the server instance startup to freeze with a deadlock; for example, setting the following in domain.xml causes the problem:

<jvm-options\>-Djava.security.debug=access,failure</jvm-options\>

Solution

None. Avoid setting this flag.
