Claus Ibsen created KARAF-2840:
----------------------------------
Summary: Creating child container using admin service should use
KARAF_OPTS
Key: KARAF-2840
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-2840
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: Bug
Components: karaf-core
Affects Versions: 2.3.4
Reporter: Claus Ibsen
Fix For: 2.3.5
When you use admin:create to create a child container, then the AdminService is
used to create the JVM process. This code does not read the KARAF_OPTS
environment variable which means the child container does not use that when
started.
But if you use the bin/start script to start the child container, then the
setenv script will read the KARAF_OPTS.
So that means there is a difference between using the admin commands to
crate|start child containers, vs using the bin scripts.
This is a serious problem for Windows users on IP6 network that hits a well
known issue, where they have to set a JVM system property to work around this.
If they do not you get network issues such as
java.net.SocketException: Permission denied: no further information
To fix this with Karaf you set this option
KARAF_OPTS '-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true'
Maybe either globally in the Windows box, or in the bin/setenv.bat file.
But the child containers do not pickup that env option when created by admin
server.
This patch fixes that.
To see if the env option was picked up by Karaf, you can connect to the child
container, and run
{code}
dev:system-property | grep java.net
{code}
