CHECK THE PATCH LEVEL::

I don't beleive that the stock Solaris 2.51 is supported for
WebObjects 4 (it was only supported on WebObjects 3.51 if you a few
patches installed). I wonder if that is the probelm, especially since
the patches required were to address threading issues with Java.

If you read the patch report:

ftp://sunsolve1.Sun.COM/pub/patches/Solaris2.5.1.PatchReport

you'll see that patch 103600 was obsoleted by patch 103640 which is
currently at patch rev 23 (103640-23) This is a 2.5.1 kernel patch last
updated on 9/16/98. This replaces the kernel binary and any kernel
modules which have been updated, so it prolly fixes things like TCP stack
implementation problems, etc.

103566 is a Xwindows (Xsun) patch. (currently at rev 36 last updated
8/11/98

The reason you need these patches:

http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/install.html

Scroll to the end of the document - basically these are threading fixes so
that java threads work properly, and the X fixes are for the awt stuff in
Motif.

This is the fix..
Apparently with out setup:: Solaris 2.51, WO4.0, Apache1.3.3 using the CGI
Adaptor
When we migrated from WO3.51 -> WO4.0
I was assuming the webserver would not need any tweaking..

But it looks like in WO4.0 for whatever reason Apache needs this line in the
httpd.conf
ServerSignature Off

This handles sending the server name/version to the user in error screens ??

An explanation of why this is needed in 4.0 and not in 3.51 would be nice..
Any takers ?

Thanx for all the help..
