@pdurbin: morning! have you applied this mornings java-1.8 security update to any of your test boxen yet?
13:19
pdurbin
uh
13:19
pdurbin
:)

(i suppose that's the royal/collective "you" / y'all)

my one rhel7 dataverse 4.4 box is now throwing org.glassfish.deployment.common.DeploymentException: Error in linking security policy for dataverse-4.4 -- Inconsistent Module State
13:23
pdurbin
hmm, whenever I see stuff like that I undeploy the app and stop glassfish
13:24
pdurbin
on https://dev1.dataverse.org for example I'm running OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_91-b14)
13:25
pdurbin
`yum update` says "No Packages marked for Update" so maybe the patch hasn't made it into openjdk yet
13:25
donsizemore
my update to 1.8.0_101-b13 borked things. undeploying now
13:25
pdurbin
donsizemore: are you using openjdk?
13:25
donsizemore
correct
13:26
pdurbin
huh, I wonder by yum isn't telling me there's an update
13:26
pdurbin
why*
13:26
donsizemore
centos may not have released it yet. if it's rhel, try a 'yum clean all' then a 'yum check-update'
13:27
pdurbin
yeah, I'm on centos. centos 6
13:28

dls irss-dvn4prod logs]$ sudo -u glassfish /usr/local/glassfish4/bin/asadmin deploy /home/dls/dataverse-4.4.war remote failure: Error occurred during deployment: Exception while loading the app : Error in linking security policy for dataverse-4.4 -- Inconsistent Module State.
13:30
pdurbin
hmm
13:30
donsizemore
ah, corrupt OSGI cache
13:30
pdurbin
donsizemore: so you're seeing this on RHEL ? Not CentOS?
13:31
donsizemore
haven't patched the centos boxes yet =) my "new" prod machine isn't in prod yet =)
13:33
donsizemore
@pdurbin it was the osgi-cache. apologies for my teapot tempest
13:34
pdurbin
this seems to be the advisory for RHEL : https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-1458.html
13:36
pdurbin
sounds pretty nasty
13:38
pdurbin
donsizemore: not sure if you met the folks from Singapore but they're very interested in security. I suggested that maybe someday there could be a mailing list or something for security stuff related to Dataverse. A private mailing list, I guess. Or maybe we could use security dataverse.org and add interested parties to a ticket or something.
13:38
pdurbin
Obviously I haven't really thought this through too much. :)

@pdurbin our production boxes or RHEL , and our security group considers the time-to-patch in the severity of their response to any security incident, so i patch as quickly as i can. i'm happy to report that 4.4 deploys and launches properly on OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_101-b13). as you were =)
13:39
pdurbin
donsizemore: awesome. What did you have to do with osgi-cache?
13:42
donsizemore
@pdurbin: stopped glassfish, removed the osgi-cache/ contents (in this case a sub-dir named 'felix'), started glassfish
13:42
donsizemore
@pdurbin: dataverse-4.4.war then deployed without error and i had my test box back!
13:43
pdurbin
huh. is that under a directory called "generated"? Sometimes we blow that directory away (after stopping glassfish)
13:43
donsizemore
it's under domain1/, for this box /usr/local/glassfish4/glassfish/domains/domain1/osgi-cache/
13:43
pdurbin
ok, different fix then
13:43
pdurbin
good to know about. thanks
13:44
donsizemore
i remembered doing this last year after i googled "glassfish inconsistent module state"
13:44
pdurbin
gotcha
13:44
donsizemore
if i could remember all the stuff i've forgotten, i'd be rich, or something.
13:44
pdurbin
heh
13:44
pdurbin
donsizemore: hey, would you mind emailing security dataverse.org about the Java update?

@pdurbin: don
