Description

Resolution:

Description:
============
 UnderUnix/Linux, the engine.jar is not loaded properly, especially when multiple plugins are installed, Project validation failure on JMS activity in Designer are reported.

Environment:
===========
OS Unix/Linux
 BW 5.6/5.8
  

Symptoms:
========
 A working project was created with Designer 5.5.  While opening this project in the latest versions of BW Suit (BW 5.8 with/without patches and TRA 5.6.2 with/without patches) , the JMS Activities output tab is empty. On validation, this gives "BWENGINE-100006". However validation on the the JMS activities shows it was successful.

Cause:
=====
On some platforms, especially on Linux system, the order in which the jar files are picked and appended in classpath are different, which causes this issue.


Resolution:
==========
Previously a same FAQ logged for this symptom, was resolved by:

- Edit  the <TIBCO_HOME>/bw/5.8/bin/bwengine tra file and explicitly add the engine.jar in the beginning of classpath for 'tibco.env.CUSTOM_EXT_PREPEND_CP' property, then redeploy the project. Alternatively,  directly add it in the deployed engine tra file.

  This could not always resolve the problem because of  too many BW plugins being installed (BE, iProcess,etc.,), which get more jars added in the classpath. You should configure the same in designer.tra as well as bwengine.tra. Afterwards, the output of the JMS activity will be seen and validation will be successfull.
