Some more info:

I'm getting this in system.log:

Jun 5 13:03:55 deployment1 SystemStarter[117]: "/System/Library/ StartupItems/WebObjects/WebObjects" failed security check: not owned by UID 0 Jun 5 13:03:55 deployment1 SystemStarter[117]: "/System/Library/ StartupItems/WebObjects/WebObjects" failed security check: not owned by GID 0

It sounds like someone has been playing on your server.  Mine says

-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 272 Feb 14 15:27 StartupParameters.plist
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  2359 Feb 14 15:27 WebObjects


and when I hit wotaskd by http://my.server.com:1085 I get:

Attempt to call Direct Action: defaultAction on wotaskd with incorrect password.

Check the contents of
/System/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/Apache/apache.conf

Nothing looks out of line here. Can you tell me something specific I should be looking for?

Just a user name / password for the adaptor properties (which I think is also used for all WOTaskd requests

Here's the relevant lines, along with one that might be relevant maybe:

# To enable public access to the WOAdaptorInfo page, uncomment the following line
# WebObjectsAdminUsername public

# To enable the WOAdaptorInfo page with restricted access,
# uncomment the next two lines and set the user and password
# To access the WOAdaptorInfo page with restricted access,
# use a URL like: http://webserver/cgi-bin/WebObjects/WOAdaptorInfo? user+password.
# WebObjectsAdminUsername user
# WebObjectsAdminPassword password

# To change the logging options, read the following comments:
# The option name is "WebObjectsLog" and the first value indicates the path of the log file. # The second value indicates the log level. There are five, in decreasing informational order:
#       "Debug",    "Info",    "Warn",    "Error",    "User"
#
# Note: To enable logging, touch '/tmp/logWebObjects' as the administrator user (usually root).
#
# The following line is the default:
# WebObjectsLog /tmp/WebObjects.log Debug

Do I need to uncomment this last line to get it dump to the WebObjects.log file? I'm hoping so;-)

Things are still not working? Try configuring a new instance of one of these apps, but with no output path and not launch params.

That gets the same results: the app won't start, but the little lever keeps trying to flip up and stay up. The odd thing about these failures is that I usually see the Death count increment each time it ultimately gives up, but not this time. and it will keep trying this forever; it won't give up eventually, which is also not typical.

Is there any new code? If the apps / frameworks were built on JDK 1.5 / Java 5 they will not run on a server with 1.4.2. Hmm, you said they would launch from the command line, so that can't be it.

No, no new code in quite a while.

Any output from wotaskd / SpawnOfWotaskd.sh?

Not so far.



Still nothing showing up in any of the logs. As a related question, what should the permissions be on the webobjects log file at /var/log/?

I only see this on one of my machines, it says

-rw-r--r--    1 root  wheel      783 Jun  2 17:51 webobjects.log

That is from an older version of WO though (5.2.4)

and what about the instance log files? I set everything to output to /tmp in Monitor, but nothings showing up there either, and I'm thinking it's maybe a permissions issue. Just currious. Thanks.

It sounds like it may be.  See my previous message.

This morning I started my week with all our production apps down. I'm able to log into Monitor, but when I try to start instances, the lever keeps going and going, no deaths, and I can't move it beyond this state. There was nothing in /var/log/ webobjects, so I rm'd it, then sudo touch logwebobjects, but still nothing. Restarts haven't helped. Monitor seems to be completely unresponsive. Where should I start?
