Web Author Component 23.1.1.0 fails to start up in Websphere Traditional

Hello,

We have been using the Web Author Component 22.1 in Websphere Traditional 8.5.5.16 for some time. When attempting to run 23.1.1 in the same environment, we get the following exceptions on startup, and the Web Author application / admin fails to load:

Is there some missing dependency or incompatibility with WebSphere 8.5.5.16 and the Author Component 23.x? The same issue occurs when attempting to run version 24.0.

Thanks.

Hello,

We tried to reproduce the problem and in our deployment Web Author Component started in WAS 9.0.5.8 and we could not reproduce the problems you noticed.

I would suggest several alternatives:
  • Try to use another web server such as Tomcat or even WebShpere liberty. Our recent concurrent editing function does not work in WAS Traditional and we plan to deprecate the support for WAS Traditional. Do you think you will be able to make the switch?
  • If you cannot make the switch, try to use a newer version of WAS. We officially support IBM WebSphere (Traditional) 9.0.0.6, but we tested it with 9.0.5.8 and it worked.
  • Please make sure that you follow this procedure [1] , especially the part about parent-last classloader.
Best,
Cristian

Thanks for the information. Unfortunately upgrading WAS or switching software is not currently an option.

Is there an official list of supported WAS versions by Web Author release? Having that information would be really helpful.

Thanks again,

Dave

Hello,

Here is documented the supported version of WAS for version 23.1.1: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... fq_dgk_54b .

Best,
