Known Issues

• Serial Version UID Mismatch
• Known Issues for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 on Itanium and 64-bit Xeon and AMD64
• Issues Related to Windows Server 2003 on Itanium Using Remote Autonomy
• Known Issues for Other BEA Products

Serial Version UID Mismatch

A serial version UID mismatch is encountered when using Weblogic Server 9.2 with Sun Java 2 JDK 5.0 (version 1.5.0_03 or later) and JRockit 5.0 (R27.1).

Workaround: To be compatible with the serialization of perviously compiled applications, modify the <BEA_HOME>\Weblogic92\common\bin\commEnv.cmd file to include the following command:

JAVA_OPTIONS="$JAVA_OPTIONS -Dcom.sun.xml.namespace.QName.useCompatibleSerialVersionUID=1.0"

Note: If you intend to deploy new applications with previously compiled applications, they must be recompiled as necessary to have the same Serial Version UID.

Known Issues for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 on Itanium and 64-bit Xeon and AMD64

The Java Component Object (jCom) feature, available with WebLogic Server, is not supported on Windows 2003 on Itanium, AMD64 or 64-bit Xeon.

Issues Related to Windows Server 2003 on Itanium Using Remote Autonomy

See Using a Remote Autonomy Installation in Supported Configurations for WebLogic Platform 9.2.

Known Issues for Other BEA Products

For information about known issues with BEA products supported on this configuration, including available workarounds, see the appropriate Release Notes document.
