LiveCycle Data Services:Release Notes

LiveCycle Data Services ES 2.6 Beta 2 Known Issues

210834 NIO based channels do no work in an IPv6 environment on Windows. Refer to Sun bug http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6230761

A MIME type mapping for Adobe Air applications is required to allow browsers to download Air applications. The correct mime type mapping for Air is "application/vnd.adobe.air-application-installer-package+zip air" . For more information refer to the AIR Release Notes.

To configure jdbc datasources supporting transactions in the turnkey Tomcat 6 server: for each datasource <Resource .../> add the following attribute:

   factory="org.objectweb.jndi.DataSourceFactory"
   create carol.properties in tomat/lib
   carol.properties contents

   # JNDI (Protocol Invocation)
   carol.protocols=jrmp

   # Local RMI Invocation
   carol.jvm.rmi.local.call=false

   # do not use CAROL JNDI wrapper
   carol.start.jndi=false

   # do not start a name server
   carol.start.ns=false

   # Naming Factory
   carol.jndi.java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.apache.naming

Runtime substituation of tokens (eg. server.name, server.port) in endpoint urls in channel configuration does not work in Air applications. Destinations that may service Air applications should not be configured with channels containing tokens; use literal values instead.

LCDS-195 For the HibernateAssembler, updating a parent item with associations that have load-on-demand="true" or page-size > 0 will set these associations to null unless they are fetched before you do the update.

LCDS-177 Both Oracle TopLink, packaged by default with OC4J, and Hibernate use antlr.jar, which results in class collisions. Workaround for this issue is documented at http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25221_04/web.1013/b14433/opensrc.htm#BABFDGBG.

LCDS-176 Oracle's OC4J web application server ships with its own implementation of JAXP which is not compatible with PDF generation. To work around the problem copy another JAXP implementation such as Apache Xalan to your WEB-INF/lib directory and set the following java.lang.System property at runtime in your RemoteObject class. (NOTE: You must recompile your RemoteObject class and restart the web application server for this change to be picked up.)

  System.setProperty("javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory", "org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl");

LCDS-148 IllegalThreadStateException can be trown in JOTM. See bug http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/index.php?group_id=19&atid=100019

BLZ-48 The Apache connector or other older HTTP proxies buffer the HTTP responses effectively blocking streaming connections. Use simple polling or long-polling rather than streaming. WebOTX,OC4J 10.1.3.3 and SAP Netweaver CE 7.1 SP3 application servers are affected

LCDS-189 Setting a bind-address without a bind-port for RTMP channel causes a flex.messaging.config.ConfigurationException when starting the server. The workaround is to add both bind-address and bind-port for binding.

LCDS-197 Windows Vista installer does not update menu with LCDS entries. After installing the Adobe Program folder from the stat menu displays the following Adobe->LiveCycle Data Services ES 2.6->(Empty). The workaround, is to start a windows command, change directory to installed area (ex. c:\lcds\sampledb) and execute startdb.bat, start another windows command, change directory to installed area (ex: c:\lcds\tomcat\bin) and execute catalina.bat run. LCDS is now running and you can start a browse and execute http://localhost:8400/lcds-samples.

LCDS-198 When using DataService over RTMP channel in a cluster, the channel failover doesn't work. The workaround is to use a polling channel(NIO AMF/HTTP) instead.
