<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=245384222-18022007>Hi
folks,</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=245384222-18022007></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=245384222-18022007>We recently had an
unusual problem where parts of the published webpages were blank in the browser.
It transpired that those areas corresponded to included JSP elements and that
the .java files output by Jasper (Tomcat's JSP engine) contained binary
characters and hence couldn't be compiled into bytecode.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=245384222-18022007></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=245384222-18022007>Republishing the
offending elements fixed the problem. Not sure what caused this! The elements
had not been published for weeks/months. Part of the OpenCms caching mechanism
perhaps..? Don't know.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=245384222-18022007></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=245384222-18022007>But one component
that was not visible escaped our attention - an included JavaScript element
that tracked our visitor activity (using Omniture, in fact).
</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=245384222-18022007></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=245384222-18022007>Because our website
is a cluster of two servers (using OCEE from Alkacon) and because this error was
only on one server (not sure if this reflects poorly on OCEE or not because I
have no idea how the binary characters get into the picture) we didn't notice at
first and thought we were getting reduced traffic. Took me a while to realise it
was just not being recorded properly!</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=245384222-18022007></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=245384222-18022007>The point is: the
fix for this problem (which I hope is rare) is to re-publish the files. But
there is (AFAIK) no way to re-publish the Online Project. I can't just publish
the Offline one because there are always some pages still being worked
on.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
