excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar ??
Hello,
I've reinstalled James under Linux but it seems that
excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar isn't present in the james lib directory.
Then, when I start ./run.sh, Phoenix starts but James doesn't because
there's a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError : javax/activation/Datasource.
I suspect it is because the excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar isn't in the
lib directory. This excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar doesn't seem to be in
the james-2.1.2.zip. I don't remember how I ended up with
excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar in my Windows james lib. Is it the problem?
Should I copy excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar in the james lib directory?
Thanks,
Jm

I installed James on a second Linux machine today (Debian) and will try
to find out more. Both systems are testsystems with no traffic at all
during the night, so your statement about your millions of messages
might underline my (absoulutely unproved) oppinion that it is some kind
of time out. Both my systems store users and mails in MySQL (which is
iddle the whole night as well)..

The longest I have run James with the file-stores, during testing, was 72
hours and some millions of messages. The longest I have run James with the
db-stores is several months. These tests were all with James on the latest
linux 2.2 kernel and either IBM 1.3.1 or a current Sun 1.4.1 JDK.
Interestingly, I've never had a problem with -server, either.

Correct. The "autoreconnect" parameter should help with that problem for
drivers that support it.

Does this happen with both db-stores and file-stores? I had a theory
once before that the database was disconnecting after an exteneded
idle time. I seem to recall a post earlier that said James is not happy
if the db server is restarted or dis/re-connected. I also noted that
the problem for me went away when I switched back to file stores.
Any thoughts? Perhaps this is a red-herring?

Hi list,
I encounter the same problem. Looks like a timeout to me.
The server runs fine all day long, when I check for mail periodically,
but terminates without an errormessage during the night, when nobody
accesses it.
Happend three nights in a row now.
Suse Linux 8.0, nightly build and JDK 1.4.1

Would be nice to understand this issue. I always run James with -server,
and have have any problems.

James crashes after a while under Linux
Posted by Jm Seigneur <Je...@cs.tcd.ie>.
Hello,
According to the thread "RE: James Stopped!", it may be interesting to
know how many people experienced crashes with James.
So, this configuration crashes after a while:
OS: Linux RedHat 8.0
JVM: Sun 1.4.1_02-b06 Hotspot mixed mode
-server used in phoenix.sh script
At the moment, I'm trying without the -server option.
All the best,
Jm

RE: RE: excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar ??
Posted by Jm Seigneur <Je...@cs.tcd.ie>.
Hello Stephan,
That's what I did first but then my Linux James started to crash after a
while. So, I'm trying to properly reinstall James under Linux.
Actually, javax/activation/Datasource is part of activation.jar not
excalibur-datasource-1.0.jar.
Now, my question is: When should activation.jar be installed in the
james lib directory?
I read your recent tutorial and for some reasons it didn't work to unzip
and run.sh.
To get it working, I had to copy manually activation.jar (that I had
somewhere else) in james lib.
Then, James started and I found out that under
...work/james-aNumber/SAR-INF/lib/ there were activation.jar,
mail_1_3.jar, cornerstone.jar, james.jar and other jars that I copied
under james lib. Otherwise, I couldn't start my Mailets because
james.jar couldn't be found after stopping James, changing the
config.xml (pointing to my Mailets) and restarting. After copying all
these jars, it worked and I hope that it's not going to crash this time
;)
Thanks anyway,
Jm

Hi Jm,
I simply copied my Windows version 1 to 1 to my Linux server and only
edited the config.xml, so all JAR files are identical for me. Should
work for you too.
