822250 - Tomcat6 mod_cluster config file

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, Mod_cluster config file error is displayed on the Inventory Connections screen even after configuring the file. This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

803093 - [Tomcat Plugin] Changing an existing connector type results in new connector type not being discovered

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when an existing Tomcat connector was changed by modifying Tomcat’s server.xml file, JBoss Operations Network (JON) did not discover the new connector. The old connector remains in the inventory and is invalid.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. As a workaround for this issue, remove the old connector resource from the JBoss Operations Network (JON) inventory and force service discovery to discover the new connector.

703562 - Tomcat plugin missing support for JNDI configured Datasources

The JBoss Enterprise Web Server’s Tomcat plugin is used to expose configured JNDI Datasources. The plugin is expected to provide relevant Datasource/Connection Pool information but instead it does not provide any information for JNDI Tomcat Datasources.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

952674 - JON Tomcat user database - union displayed names of tomcat groups, roles and users

JBoss Enterprise Web Server’s JBoss Operations Network (JON) plugin user interface displays the names of groups and users enclosed within quotation marks ("") but the names of roles are not within quotation marks.

This is a known issue in the JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 JBoss Operations Network (JON) plugin and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

1120696 - EWS RPM installed Tomcat version is not discovered

When JBoss Enterprise Web Server is installed using RPMs, the JON Tomcat plugin is not able to discover the Tomcat version number.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and no workaround is currently available.

httpd

1086412 - SSLFIPS option does not operate the same as RHEL httpd

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the SSLFIPS option does not operate as expected.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

968389 - private key before PEM certificate causes Segfault

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server sending a request via a mod_proxy reverse proxy to a https backend results in a segfault. Using gdb shows that having the private key before the certificate in SSLProxyMachineCertificateFile triggers the segfault.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

1118391 - mod_snmp MS Windows known issues

When using JBoss Enterprise Web Server, two unexpected problems occur. Firstly, the mod_snmp agent starts on the UDP:161 default port even if a configuration agentaddress 1610 is specified in snmpd.conf. Secondly, when httpd starts, no notice appears in the httpd error_log file. The expected error message starts with the following:

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the httpd module mod_substitute is missing in Microsoft Windows build. This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

mod_cluster

1025057 - SSLProxyMachineCertificateFile doesn't support PKCS#8 key format

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when a PKCS#8 key generated by OpenSSL is used, JBoss Enterprise Web Server displays the following error and then terminates:

incomplete client cert configured for SSL proxy (missing or encrypted private key?)

Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The PKCS#8 format is not supported by mod_ssl since mod_ssl uses different functions uses when loading the proxy key pair. This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. As a workaround, convert from PKCS#8 to the raw PEM encoding of the RSA key and use "openssl pkcs8".

mod_jk

900273 - mod_jk is unable to handle space after equal '=' sign in uriworkermap.properties where worker name includes a hyphen '-'

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when a worker name includes the - character and a space is added after the = character in the uriworkermaps.properties file, the following error appears in the mod_jk logs:

[25736:139832971024352] [error] uri_worker_map_ext::jk_uri_worker_map.c (506): Could not find worker with name jk-stauus in uri map post processing. [25736:139832971024352] [error] uri_worker_map_ext::jk_uri_worker_map.c (506): Could not find worker with name jk-stauus in uri map post processing.

Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. A workaround for this issue is to remove the space after the = sign. Therefore, /jk-status|/* = jk-status is changed to /jk-status|/* =jk-status.

tomcat6

978370 - Wrong permissions on /usr/share/tomcat6

When using JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, the /usr/share/tomcat6 directory does not have the appropriate permissions set. As a result, virtual hosts cannot be created as expected using the host-manager web application because the tomcat user cannot create a directory in /usr/share/tomcat6.

This is a known issue is JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and no workaround is currently available for this issue.

899180 - CR1: /host-manager application doesn't persist newly created virtual hosts

When a virtual host is created using the /host-manager/html application, it is successfully created but not persistently added to the Tomcat configuration.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. No workaround is available for this problem.

900901 - Tomcat6/7 doesn't allow character ':' in several properties (server.xml)

JBoss Enterprise Web Server’s version of Tomcat 6 and 7 does not allow the semi-colon character (:) in the server.xml file for several attributes and displays an exception for an invalid character instead. This character is normally used as a group delimiter for the IPv6 addresses.

An IP address should not be used as a defaulthost name in the Engine element, nor should an IP address be used as the name in the Host element. These attributes are intended to be alpha-numeric names. These property names are used in MBean names that disallow characters including ":". Users must use a alpha-numeric name and not depend on IP addresses of any type in those properties. This issue will not be fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server.

1115849 - Include store-config sources in src zips

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the store-config source files are not included in the source zip.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

901081 - Tomcat[6,7]: Start with security manager fails on RHEL with jdk-ibm16,ibm17

When using JBoss Enterprise Web Server with Red Hat Enterprise Linux with either the IBM JDK 1.6 or 1.7, the startup.sh -security command does not start tomcat (6 or 7) but posts exceptions to the logs instead.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

900978 - IPv6 :: address slowing down Tomcat6/7 on MS Windows

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when an IPv6 address is used to start Tomcat 6 or 7 on Windows and then the relevant version of Tomcat is shut down, the shutdown process is unexpectedly slow. Additionaly, during the shutdown process, the catalina.log file logs the following warning:

This is a known issue for JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and currently no workaround is available.

1120255 - Wrong JAVA_HOME/JRE_HOME auto-detection on RHEL

When using JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, installing Java from RPM results in the JAVA_HOME or JRE_HOME variable unexpectedly not being set. The tomcat start up scripts are able to automatically detect these variables, but when Java is installed from RPMs, which java translated to /usr/bin/java, which is a symbolic link maintained by alternatives. As a result, the JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME variables are incorrectly set to /usr. JRE_HOME and JAVA_HOME using this incorrect value has not historically resulted in any problems for users (based on bug reports and user support), but a problem manifests when using the daemon.sh script:

 # ./daemon.sh start' Cannot find any VM in Java Home /usr

# grep 'Cannot find any VM in Java Home' ./*
Binary file ./jsvc matches

Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The jsvc is only used in daemon.sh, therefore this problem does not manifest when tomcat is started using the startup.sh or catalina.sh scripts but does appear when using daemon.sh.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

tomcat7

1099834 - (doc and close/wontfix) manager and host-manager webapps don't work in TC7 when using security manager

When using JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 with the security manager, running a curl -I on the URLs for the /manager and /host-manager web applications returns an expected HTTP 404 Not Found error. This occurs because when a security manager is enabled, XML descriptors for contexts are not deployed by default, since this is less secure. A workaround for this issue is to set deployXML="true" on the host to enable XML descriptors.

This is a known issue is JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

1100599 - Tomcat7 - catalina.out contains warning and errors (after shutdown)

When using JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 on Microsoft Windows, starting and then stopping Tomcat7 results in warnings and errors being unexpectedly displayed after Tomcat7 has shut down. The web application [/docs] initiates a thread named [SeedGenerator Thread] but does not stop the thread when it shuts down. As a result, the errors and warnings continue to appear after Tomcat7 shuts down.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

1112157 - (document then close/notabug) tomcat7: ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.ha.ClusterRuleSet

JBoss Enterprise Web Server does not support catalina-ha.jar file. When Tomcat7 is unzipped with default configuration, a ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.ha.ClusterRuleSet exception is dispalyed in the Tomcat7 catalina.out. This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and no workaround exists for this problem.

1116863 - [rpm] hibernate extra source jars

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1, some source files are included in the Hibernate RPM distribution that are not present in the Hibernate ZIP distribution.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

1117235 - [rpm] c3p0-0.9.1.2.jar different in rpm and in zip

The /usr/share/java/c3p0-0.9.1.2.jar from the c3p0-0.9.1.2 RPM and the lib/optional/c3p0/c3p0-0.9.1.2.jar from the hibernate ZIP file are not the same when checked for binary equivalency using the md5sum value for each file.

This is a known issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and there is currently no workaround for this problem.

JON Plugin

690957 - EWS Tomcat installed from RPM shutdown fails.

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when installing Tomcat using RPMs and managing it via JBoss Operation Network, Tomcat could not be shut down. This was because the JBoss Operation Network Tomcat plugin did not work as expected with the RPM-based Tomcat installation.

The JBoss Operation Network Tomcat plugin is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

786082 - tomcat as a service is not properly detected

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the JON Tomcat plugin was not able to discover Tomcat installed as a Microsoft Windows service. In JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1, the JON Tomcat plugin is now fixed so that Tomcat is discovered as expected.

1069880 - Discovery of Tomcat fails when started using daemon.sh or jsvc

Previously, when starting Tomcat as a service using the provided daemon.sh script, the JBoss Enterprise Web Server management plugin was unexpectedly unable to discover Tomcat. This problem also occurred when the user created their own jsvc launcher to launch the Tomcat process.

This is now fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and Tomcat is discovered as expected when started.

963264 - RFE - JON Tomcat plugin + Tomcat as Windows service

When JBoss Enterprise Web Server’s Tomcat is installed as a windows service, it should start and stop as a service using the net start tomcat6 and net stop tomcat6 commands. However, JBoss Operations Network uses the startup.bat and shutdown.bat files, which start Tomcat in a Windows console instead of as a service.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. Tomcat installed as a Windows service can now be started and stopped as expected using the JBoss Operation Network user interface.

1104581 - Tomcat configured to use SSL is discovered as Tomcat(null) in JBoss ON

Previously when using JBoss Enterprise Web Server with JBoss Operations Network, when Tomcat was configured to use SSL, it was incorrectly discovered as Tomcat(null) instead of correctly identified as Tomcat($PORT).

This problem is now fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and Tomcat is correctly discovered as Tomcat($PORT) as expected.

738826 - [tomcat] Start/Stop/Restart operation should support RPM System V init script with different service names

Previously, when configuring JBoss Enterprise Server’s Tomcat server which utilizes System V Init service scripts, the service name could not be changed. This was because JBoss Enterprise Server’s JBoss Operations Network (JON) did not allow service name changes.

This is now fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and the JBoss Operations Network interface now includes a Service Name field for users to manually specify the desired name for a service.

1119652 - Webappp configuration - Config File field is mandatory

Previously, when using JBoss Enterprise Web Server with JBoss Operations Network, deploying the web application without the context.xml file, the Config File field in the JBoss Operations Network user interface’s web application configuration remained empty. This field was mandatory.

This problem is now fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and the Config File field in the JBoss Operations Network user interface is removed.

956509 - add storeconfig to EWS 2.0.1

Previously, JBoss Operations Network did not work as expected with JBoss Enterprise Web Server because the storeconfig components in tomcat 6 and 7 were missing. The missing StoreConfig components are now available in and this is a resolved issue in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

httpd

962819 - Apache Use of LDAP+SSL Doesn't Work on Windows

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, httpd partially supported the Microsoft Windows version of the LDAP SDK. The SSL information for secure LDAP should be stored in the registry but this is not supported by httpd/apr. On Windows, a combination of LDAP and SSL did not work correctly and displayed the following error message:

LDAP: SSL support unavailable: LDAP: CA certificates cannot be set using this method, as they are stored in the registry instead.

The URI comparisons must be case-insensitive. This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

1108181 - [rpm][rhel7] Add Requires: apr-util-ldap to httpd22.spec

Previously, JBoss Enterprise Web Server did not automatically install apr-util-ldap (which is a requirement for LDAP authentication on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7).

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1, apr-util-ldap was evaluated and removed from the httpd22 file as it is an optional component and available through the optional Red Hat Network channel.

1130169 - Upgrade httpd to version 2.2.26 from 2.2.22

The httpd version in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 is updated from 2.2.22 to 2.2.26.

1079300 - mod_snmp is not configured in MS Windows and Solaris build by default

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the mod_snmp.conf, mod_cluster.conf, and mod_rt.conf files were included in conf.d for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux build but were not included in the Microsoft Windows and Oracle Solaris builds.

These missing files are added into the Microsoft Windows and Oracle Solaris builds in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. Additionally, mod_snmp and mod_rt are provided with sample configurations and not started by default.

976451 - Bug in ssl_util_ocsp.c breaks http://ocsp.disa.mil

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the code in the ssl_util_ocsp.c file was broken. As a result, when the apr_bucket_read parameter returned 0 bytes, it did not indicate the end of the file (EOF). Due to this problem, the code exits prematurely with a false EOF error for some OCSP responders.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 so that the code in the ssl_util_ocsp.c file contains the EOF information and operates as expected.

1106516 - mod_snmp.conf configuration in .postinstall makes postinstall non-reentrant

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, running the .postinstall file more than once resulted in the currentDir prepending process entering into an infinite loop and the process never concluding.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 so that running .postinstall more than once works as expected.

984116 - "ProxyErrorOverride On" does not work in mod_proxy_ajp

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, ProxyErrorOverride On does not work when used with the mod_proxy_ajp module. When accessing a 404 URL in the /app context, a 404 page is displayed from the back end servers such as Tomcat, JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, etc.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and works as expected.

1022520 - WebDAV - httpd.conf typo

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the location of the WebDAV lock database was incorrect in the httpd.conf file used for the mod_dav_fs configuration on Solaris and Microsoft Windows.

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1, the incorrect DAVLockDB var/run/lockdb part of the configuration is now corrected to DAVLockDB run/lockdb and now works as expected.

mod_cluster

1080047 - EWS-2.0 mod_cluster on windows

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, mod_cluster locks were created and used even when they were not needed due to which a deadlock occurred on an unnecessary session lock.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Server 2.1 where locks are now created and used when necessary. When Maxsessionid is set to 0 (the default and preferred setting), the locks are not created and used, thus avoiding the deadlock.

958990 - mod_cluster core when use ProxyPass / balancer://bal and CreateBalancers 1

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, setting CreateBalancers 1 in /conf.d/mod_cluster.conf without setting the stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid configuration displayed the following segmentation fault information:

The mod_cluster version in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 is updated from 1.2.8 to 1.2.9.

963723 - mod_cluster: proxy DNS lookup failure with IPv6 on Solaris

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, Java returned IPv6 with a zone value similar to 2001:db8:0:f101::1%2. Subsequently, when returning a node address, the modcluster subsystem sent the IPv6 information as it existed in Java. In Solaris, apr_sockaddr_info_get() did not support the returned format and failed to resolve the IP as a host name. As a result, httpd mod_cluster did not work as expected IPv6 node addresses.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

1049276 - mod_cluster-manager may break up aliases from a single VirtualHost, causing a messy page

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when displaying the individual virtual hosts for a node, mod_cluster-manager displayed a page filled with aliases from a single virtual host interspersed with multiple other instances of the virtual host and its contexts. The result is unclear and can cause confusion for users. This problem occurs with concurrent start ups when JBoss has multiple applications bound to virtual servers that are deployed and enabled at the same time.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and virtual hosts are always displayed correctly (and only once) on the manager page with all the relevant aliases included in the single entry.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and virtual hosts are always displayed correctly (and only once) on the manager page with all the relevant aliases included in the single entry.

960246 - Regression in ProxyPass integration

Due to a regression from an earlier version of mod_proxy_cluster.so included in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, accessing a directory (for example /app/clusterbench/requestinfo/) returned a HTTP 503 error.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

mod_jk

1100602 - mod_jk 1.2.40 IPv6 support does not work on Windows

Previously, mod_jk 1.2.40 IPv6 support did not work on Microsoft Windows as APR resolves addresses on Microsoft Windows differently.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Server 2.1. The mod_jk 1.2.40 IPv6 support now works with Microsoft Windows.

1089204 - Upgrade mod_jk to version 1.2.40 from 1.2.36

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, an outdated version of mod_jk was included in the product, which did not include IPV6 support and various other fixes.

This is now fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 by including mod_jk version 1.2.40 is included which incorporates the required IPV6 and other miscellaneous bug fixes into the product.

tomcat-native

1089206 - Upgrade tomcat-native to 1.1.30 from 1.1.27

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, an outdated version of tomcat-native was included in the product, which did not include bug fixes for FIPS issues and does not include support for ECDGE ciphers.

This is now fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 by including tomcat-native version 1.1.30 is included which incorporates the required FIPS fixes for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and also adds support for ECDHE ciphers to allow Internet Explorer browsers to operate as expected.

1121867 - Getting RPM Tomcat version is not working

Previously, when JBoss Enterprise Web Server was installed using RPM, the /etc/init.d/tomcat{version} version script did not work as expected for Tomcat 6 and 7.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and the script option version now works as expected for both versions of Tomcat.

1126423 - [tomcat6] duplicate jars in tomcat6/bin

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, duplicated JAR files were unexpected available in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 ZIP files for Tomcat.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and the duplicated files are now removed.

1071309 - update tomcat6 to 6.0.41

Previously, JBoss Enterprise Web Server included an outdated version of Tomcat 6.x.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and Tomcat 6.0.41 is included in the product as expected.

tomcat6,tomcat7

979423 - Tomcat files not relabelled after installation of selinux policy

In JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the SELinux configuration files and compiled .pp file are available at $confdir/selinux/packages/tomcat7. The compiled .pp file is provided but not installed. As a result, various things fail when installing the module and error messages are not descriptive.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. The SELinux configuration files are provided and the system administrator must compile and use the policies. For more information, refer the JBoss Enterprise Web Server Installation guide.

971866 - Remove libcap-devel requirement from apache-commons-daemon-jsvc-eap6

Previously, JBoss Enterprise Web Server’s apache-commons-daemon-jsvc-eap6 file required the missing libcap-devel package instead of the libcap package, which was available.

This issue was fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. The libcap-devel package is now available for the apache-commons-daemon-jsvc-eap6 file as expected.

901173 - Tomcat6 and tomcat7 installs the EL API package to alternatives using the same name "el_api"

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, during the RPM installation for tomcat6 and tomcat7, alternatives are configured for el_api. Both versions of tomcat use the same name (el_api)), due to which the tomcat version installed later overwrites the version installed first. Additionally, both builds use the alternatives el_api and el_api_1_0 instead of the correct version (tomcat6 uses version 2.1 while tomcat7 uses 2.1).

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1.

1088261 - WARs outside of the host's appBase are not unpacked, regardless of the value of the Host's unpackWARs setting

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when a web application was deployed outside the host’s appBase then it is not unpacked, regardless of the value of the Host’s unpackWARs setting. This was because tomcat’s deployer was not refactored.

This issue is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1. The web application is deployed and the WAR file is unpacked inside the specified appBase.

1115525 - jsvc in different directories

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, when using the Red Hat Enterprise Linux version, the jsvc binary was missing from the tomcat6/bin directory. For the Oracle Solaris version, jsvc was not available in the share/extras directory. As a result, when the JSVC environment variable was not set, the daemon.sh script in the tomcat{6,7}/bin directory sets the value of JSVC to $CATALINA_BASE/bin/jsvc, which is incorrect.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and the jsvc binary file is available as expected in the tomcat6/bin directory for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and in the share/extras directory for Oracle Solaris.

1113435 - Upgrade Hibernate to 4.2.14.SP1 (from 4.2.13.Final-redhat-1)

Previously, JBoss Enterprise Web Server included an oudated version of Hibernate.

1117350 - [rpm] remove javadoc from c3p0-0.9.1.2-3.ep6.el6

Previously in JBoss Enterprise Web Server, the c3p0-0.9.1.2-8_redhat_1.ep6.el5, c3p0-0.9.1.2-8_redhat_1.ep6.el6, and c3p0-0.9.1.2-8_redhat_1.ep6.el7 builds contained a javadoc (located at /usr/share/javadoc/{build_name}/) but was not present in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 RPM or ZIP distribution builds.

This is fixed in JBoss Enterprise Web Server 2.1 and the javadocs are not included in the c3p0-0.9.1.2-8_redhat_1.ep6.el5, c3p0-0.9.1.2-8_redhat_1.ep6.el6, and c3p0-0.9.1.2-8_redhat_1.ep6.el7 builds as expected.
