Hi Giacomo,
don't let them scare you away ;-)
Since Weblogic Server 8.1 runs with java 1.4 the latest version for you
would be 2.1.7. And i can understand too well, that you can't
replace/ugrade your version. The problem is, that you didn't specify any
details. iText (in that version) didn't use system properties by default to
change the alignment of text or other things. Maybe your application does
that? Such server scenarios are difficult to track. Depending on how you
implemented it - maybe you are sharing one PDFWriter Instance (=static) for
all users and depending on how many users are generating documents you will
get unpredictable results. In your case a thorough code analysis must be
done since its seems more like a multithread/reentrant/sychronization
problem. But as mentioned its difficult to tell since no source code was
provided. If you can't provide it, then maybe use findbugs with
findbugs-contrib since it can detect some problems in that area.
Regards,
Tobias
