CR 6971437 : OpenSSO 8.0 Update 2 loses configuration after restart of JBoss Application Server 5.0.0.0

If you deploy and configure the opensso.war file on JBoss Application Server 5.0.0.0 and then restart the JBoss Application Server web container, OpenSSO 8.0 Update 2 displays the configurator page again instead of the login page.

Workaround. Deploy the opensso.war file in the JBoss AS deploy directory, as follows:

1. Stop the JBoss Application Server web container.

2. Edit the JBoss Application Server run.conf file by adding the following options:

   -Dcom.iplanet.am.cookie.encode=true 
   -Dcom.iplanet.am.cookie.c66Encode=true 

3. Uncomment the line "admin=admin" in the following files:

   • JBOSS_INSTALL_DIR/server/$CONFIG/conf/props/jmx-console-users.properties

   • JBOSS_INSTALL_DIR/server/$CONFIG/deploy/management/console-mgr.sar/web-console.war/WEB-INF/classes/web-console-users.properties

4. Copy the opensso.war file to the following JBoss Application Server directory:

   JBOSS_INSTALL_DIR/server/$CONFIG/deploy

   where $CONFIG is the JBoss Application Server mode, such as default, all, or production.

5. Restart the JBoss Application Server web container.

6. Deploy the opensso.war file in the directory shown in Step 4.
