Thanks for the response Justin. I work w. Robert. We have been attempting to
do just what you have recommended, unfortunately, without success. So it's
hard for us to know if newer version has addressed the issue. We've done
testing with a trunk release from March 12, 2012 and with 2.2 beta 1, but bugs
in their rest interfaces made those version a non-option for us. We also
looked through Jira.
We are posting to see if anyone else has experienced this and has either found
a way to reproduce it or found a way to prevent it. We'll continue to try to
reliably reproduce.
Respectfully,

Hi Robert,
I don't know of any outstanding jira ticket specifically for this issue. You
could try a newer version and see if the problem persists.
All in all your best bet is going to be to try as best you can to reliably
reproduce the problem and then find a way to have a developer reproduce the
problem. Without that I am not sure what can be done.
Perhaps you can try to set up a watcher script that notifies when the files are
flushed away. And perhaps in parallel to that turn on request level logging in
your servlet container and try to compare timestamps to see indeed what is
going on and perhaps what lead to it.

Issue:
We have an issue where the wms.xml, wfs.xml, wcs.xml and wps.xml files in
GeoServer from time to time get cleared of content, thus resulting in no
services being available.
Environment:
We have 2 environments. Both exhibit the issue.
1) Environment 1
a. GeoServer version 2.1.x
b. Running on RHEL 5.7
c. JBoss 5.1
d. Clustered configuration
i.
4 GeoServer Instances clustered sharing global file external data directory
ii.
F5 Load balancer in front of the GeoServers.
2) Environment 2
a. GeoServer version 2.1.x
b. Running on RHEL 5.7
c. JBoss 5.1
d. Clustered configuration
i.
2 GeoServers Clustered, sharing global file external data directory
ii.
F5 Load balancer in front of the GeoServers.
Theory:
We 'think' this may be triggered by a rest reload command.
We do a reset reload command because we use the rest interface to create new
layers. The call is made via one of the clustered GeoServers, and a reload of
the other GeoServers in the cluster is required in order for them to become
aware of the newly created layers.
It has been our observation that a back-to-back reload command often precedes
the issue occurring.
Request:
I attempted to see if this issue has been reported as bug in the Jira system,
but did not find a report that I thought was a match.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Is there an existing bug report for this issue?
Has this issue be addressing in a newer release?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Respectfully,
Chris Moreau
