- JBoss Data Grid Does Not Start and NullPointerException Occurs if Persistent Location is Not Unique
Issue: JDG-1504
Description: It is not possible to start more than one instance of JBoss Data Grid from the same directory if the value of
persistent-locationis not unique in each configuration.Workaround: Do one of the following to ensure the value of
persistent-locationis unique in the JBoss Data Grid configuration:Set a unique
pathattribute for each instance.<persistent-location path="mydir${uniquesuffix}" />Set a unique
relative-toattribute for each instance if using a common path:<paths> <path name="mypath" path="/home/user/jboss-datagrid-7.2.0-server/standalone/mypath" /> </paths> <persistent-location relative-to="mypath" path="mydir" />
Specify the
-Djboss.server.data.dirsystem property to set a unique relative location for each instance if using a common path:./standalone.sh -Djboss.server.data.dir=/home/user/jboss-datagrid-7.2.0-server/standalone/mypath
- SKIP_CACHE_LOAD Flag Has No Effect if Authentication is Enabled
Issue: JDG-1424

Description: If you install the JBoss Data Grid HotRod C++ client as a container from the Red Hat Container Catalog the API documentation is not available in the
/usr/share/doc/infinispan-hotrod-cpp/api/directory.This issue occurs because the container image has the
