XI 7.0 NW 2004s install - JMS Errors in applications.log & defaultTrace

Question

We just installed XI 7.0 NW 2004s.  The installation of XI 7.0 NW 2004s is a lot simpler than XI 3.0 NW 2004 since the Template installer runs most of the post installation steps.
However, there are a few issues that I am encountering that i did not see with XI 3.0 installations.  The installation is on Windows 2003 server and SQL server 2005.
Checking the applications.log file through Visual Administrator LogViewer, I see that the Applications log is filing up every few seconds with the following repeating errors:
Message -
Exception on server occured! Internal error.

In the defaultTrace.trc file, i see the JMS error too:

This is filing up both the applications.log and defaultTrace files.  I cannot find any information through Service Marketplace.  Has anyone encountered this issue?  This is new installation - no messages are running on it so I am not sure why there is a JMS error.

Answer 1

Hi Jay,
The exception means that the JMS Provider is not able to write to the transaction log file upon close of a transacted session. In NW04s, JMS transactions are stored as files on the local file system. The location of the root folder where the transactions are persisted is configured by the JMS service property "transactionStorePath". You can check its value through the Visual Administrator -> Services-> JMS Provider -> Properties. Please check if it contains a correct directory path and that nothing prevents the server from writing to this path - access rights, enough disk space, etc. If there is something wrong with the path, you can change it, save the change and restart the JMS provider service for the change to become effective.
You can also have a closer look at the server trace file: the root cause of the above exception is some other exception, probably I/O one, and it should be logged somewhere in adjacency to the JMS exception.
There is ongoing JMS communication even in a new server installation - in this case (judging from the stack trace) the component that performs this JMS activity is the timeout service.
Hope this helps,
Stoyan
