Error description
If you have started the IBM Integration Toolkit, opened a workspace and, without closing that workspace, you start a second instance of the Toolkit, you are able to open the same workspace again which should not be allowed on Windows. The second instance of the Toolkit should get a message indicating that the workspace is locked, and not allow you to open it a second time. The problem is specific to Windows and to the IBM Integration Toolkit v9.
Local fix
In the folder where the IBM Integration Toolkit is installed, there is a sub folder called "configuration". Inside that sub folder there is a file called "config.ini". Edit the "config.ini" file and either remove the line: osgi.locking=none or make it a comment by inserting a hash (#) in as the first character such as in: #osgi.locking=none
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM Integration Bus Toolkit V9.0 running on a Windows operating system. Platforms affected: Windows on x86 platform, Windows on x86-64 platform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The following directive in the \configuration\config.ini was added on a Windows system: osgi.locking=none This directive is significant on a Linux system for the Integration Bus Toolkit to run properly, but it prevents the Workspace from being locked on Windows. The fix for this APAR is to remove that directive from the config.ini file on Windows.
Problem conclusion
The product now locks the workspace on Windows. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v9.0 9.0.0.4 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from: 'Recommended fixes for WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27009742 If the maintenance level is not yet available, information on its planned availability can be found in 'WebSphere Message Broker Planned Maintenance Release Dates' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006308 ---------------------------------------------------------------
