AW: [opencms-dev] Registry Bug

[Andreas Schouten]

Hi,

could you please give more details about how to reproduce the bug? It works
for me. Is it possible you have changed the registry manually while running
OpenCms? If you want to change the registry manually you should first stop
the system.

Regards,
Andreas

Betreff: [opencms-dev] Registry Bug


There's a serious bug which could throw the novice user in a mess all of a 
sudden.
When changing Synchronization parameters from the Administration tool, 
sometimes the registry (the "config/registry.xml" file) remains corrupted 
with some extra repeated tags at the end of the file:
            <repository/>
         </module>
     </modules>
</registry>
Next time OpenCMS is restarted, an exception is displayed by the servlet 
and the platform doesn't start anymore.
By manually deleting the extra tags from the "registry.xml" file, the 
problem can be fixed.  But without knowing the trick, the problem could 
look hard to solve.  This issue was experienced many times since version 
4.4 and wasn't still solved on version 4.6.
Good luck
