Simple post–simple consultant!

I could not for the life of my synchronise any jas.ini or jdbj.ini files to one of my production web clusters via server manager.  Everything else was working fine.  This is for WLS 10.3.5 and 9.1.3.3

I got the following in my server_manager agent logs:

WARNING: Stdout: weblogic.Deployer invoked with options:  -adminurl t3://AUBDC00-JWB01P.au.ad.westfield.com:7001 -userconfigfile D:\\jde_home\\SCFHA\\targets\\JWB01P_WLS\\config\\owlConfig.secure -userkeyfile D:\\jde_home\\SCFHA\\targets\\JWB01P_WLS\\config\\owlKey.secure -name JWB01P_PDCMSAU_94 -redeploy webclient.war/WEB-INF/classes<02/04/2014 10:55:17 AM EST> <Info> <J2EE Deployment SPI> <BEA-260121> <Initiating redeploy operation for application, JWB01P_PDCMSAU_94 [archive: null], to configured targets.> [Deployer:149163]The domain edit lock is owned by another session in non-exclusive mode - this deployment operation requires exclusive access to the edit lock and hence cannot proceed.

This is usually the result when one of the application servers of a cluster not running.
Make sure all servers are running and issue the sychronization again. Check logs for root cause.

I got the following through SM – classic

This is an example of an error message being too helpful, as it’s making assumptions about the problem, I have no cluster.  Also this is NOT helping, because the problem is more obvious!!!  How about the message says “you’ve locked the weblogic config you dill, how about you unlock it via your weblogic console so that I can update my files”.

 

 

Wow, sometimes blogging reveals some embarrassing situations. 

Once released – update worked as it should.
