WebLogic Error (weblogic.management.ManagementException) when re-deploying

Question

Hi all,
I'm using WebLogic 10.0 Application server - and i'm trying to update a currently deployed shared library by updating
the application in order to deploy new changes. However i'm getting the error below when i click on the Finish button.
This was previously working fine, but now i cannot redeploy an application due to the error below.
Error Details:
weblogic.management.ManagementException: [Deployer:149089]An attempt was made to activate the application '' when retirement is in progress.
Message icon - Error Update operation failed - no deployments changed.
I have tried to restart the ManagedServer - but that didn't solve the problem. Can you advice on what could be the cause
of this issue and how to possibly resolve?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Regards,
Siphiwe Madi

Hi,
It looks like you are trying to redeploy a Shared Library......according to your statement *" i'm trying to update a currently deployed shared library"*.
So if we want to redeploy/Update a Shared Library then First of all we need to undeploy/Unreference all the Applications which are currently referring to that Shared Library...then only we can update the Shared Library.
Anyway are u trying to use any kind of Versioning/ Production Redeployment feature ... If yes then please refer to some limitations of it: http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=394
