> PROBLEM: 
> Issue is described on the note ""Error:Shiro environment initialization failed" when starting KNOX"; 
>  
> ERROR env.EnvironmentLoader (EnvironmentLoader.java:initEnvironment(146)) - Shiro environment initialization failed 
> org.apache.shiro.cache.CacheException: net.sf.ehcache.CacheException: Another unnamed CacheManager already exists in the same VM. Please provide unique names for each CacheManager in the config or do one of following: 
> After implementing the solution of creating a new ehcache.xml and reference as <ehcache name="knox-mytopology1"> we still see the issue: 
> Caused by: net.sf.ehcache.CacheException: Another CacheManager with same name 'knox-tp' already exists in the same VM. Please provide unique names for each CacheManager in the config or do one of following:
> STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 
> When enabling the following parameters: 
> <param> 
> <name>main.cacheManager</name> 
> <value>org.apache.shiro.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManager</value> 
> </param> 
> <param> 
> <name>main.securityManager.cacheManager</name> 
> <value>$cacheManager</value> 
> </param> 
> <param> 
> <name>main.ldapRealm.authenticationCachingEnabled</name> 
> <value>true</value> 
> </param> 
> MORE INFO: 
> This KNOX-804 was open to solve this same issue but is not documented anywhere, but we can see the coding changes in GitHub.
> -> The issue seems to be a racing condition on the Shiro lib class, in which depending on the processing power of the server there are two threads within the same "if" statement;
> ref: https://github.com/apache/shiro/blob/master/support/ehcache/src/main/java/org/apache/shiro/cache/ehcache/EhCacheManager.java 
> 1. The Default constructor only builds the Object, and does not do much: 
> /** 
> * Default no argument constructor 
> */ 
> public EhCacheManager() { 
> } 
> 2. Accordingly with shiro documentation: 
> /** 
> * Initializes this instance. 
> * <p/> 
> * If a {@link #setCacheManager CacheManager} has been 
> * explicitly set (e.g. via Dependency Injection or programmatically) prior to calling this 
> * method, this method does nothing. 
> * <p/> 
> * However, if no {@code CacheManager} has been set, the default Ehcache singleton will be initialized, where 
> * Ehcache will look for an {@code ehcache.xml} file at the root of the classpath. If one is not found, 
> * Ehcache will use its own failsafe configuration file. 
> * <p/> 
> * Because Shiro cannot use the failsafe defaults (fail-safe expunges cached objects after 2 minutes, 
> * something not desirable for Shiro sessions), this class manages an internal default configuration for 
> * this case. 
> * 
> * @throws org.apache.shiro.cache.CacheException 
> * if there are any CacheExceptions thrown by EhCache. 
> * @see net.sf.ehcache.CacheManager#create 
> */ 
> public final void init() throws CacheException {

> private net.sf.ehcache.CacheManager ensureCacheManager() {

> 2.1 This is the head of the exception: 
> The source of the existing CacheManager is: InputStreamConfigurationSource [stream=java.io.BufferedInputStream@675ffd1d]

> *Remember that Init() will do nothing if anything in case the setCacheManager is explicitly set.
