After upgrading TIBCO Runtime Agent (TRA) from 5.11.x to 5.12.4, the TIBCO Hawk version path isn't automatically updated in the *.tra files located under <TIBCO-HOME>/5.15/bw. This can cause issues with Hawk monitoring of your BW applications.

Solution:=

Manually update the Hawk path using the traUpgradeManager.exe utility. ( Thi utility is present at <TIBCO-HOME>\tra\5.12\bin location).

Identify Paths:

TIBCO Home: <<TIBCO-HOME>>\TRA\5.12 (where TRA 5.12.4 is installed)

Hawk 6.3 Home: <TIBCO-HOME>\hawk\6.3 (your new Hawk installation)

Run Command:

Open a command prompt and execute:

traUpgradeManager.exe -path <TIBCO-HOME> -hawk <TIBCO-HOME>\hawk\6.3

Replace paths with your actual directories.

Verify:

Check tra files in <TIBCO-HOME>/5.15/bw to confirm the Hawk path is updated.

Tomcat 9 has been upgraded to patch 9.0.104 version.

Important steps regading this Tomcat 9 patch upgrade:==

Due to backward-incompatible API changes introduced in Tomcat 9, you might encounter an exception while attempting to upload an EAR file to the administrative domain using TIBCO Administrator. To ensure successful EAR file uploads, a specific configuration change is required in the Tomcat server settings.

**Applying the Fix:**

The necessary modification involves adding the `discardFacades="false"` property to the `<Connector>` element within the Tomcat server configuration file. The location of this file depends on whether you are configuring a new domain or an existing one.

**For Newly Created Domains:**

Before creating a new domain, you need to modify the template configuration file. Locate the `tomcat9_server.xml` file at the following path:

<<TIBCO-Home>>\administrator\5.12\template\ directory

Open this file and add the `discardFacades="false"` attribute to the `<Connector>` element. For example:

**For Existing Domains:**

For domains that have already been created, you need to modify the server.xml file within the specific domain's directory. Navigate to the following path:

<<TIBCO-Home>>/administrator/domain/<domainname>/tomcat/conf/

Open the server.xml file and add the discardFacades="false" attribute to the <Connector> element. For example:

Final Step:

After applying the discardFacades="false" property to the appropriate server.xml file(s), it is crucial to restart all TIBCO components for the changes to take effect and for the EAR file upload functionality to be restored
