    ****************************************************************
    The WACT0008E error occurs because the Activity Service
    Recovery Logs have become full, due to the long running
    activities. The CORBA errors are a result of the logs filling
    up.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The recovery logs used to have a fixed size of 1MB. However,
    the size of the logs can now be increased using the
    Compensation Service Recovery Log File Size property, which
    can be set using the WebSphere Administrative Console.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    Cumulative Fix 5 for WebSphere Business Integration Server
    Foundation Version 5.1.1. Please refer to the Recommended
    Updates page for delivery dates:

        docview.wss?rs=1079&uid=swg27005435
    
    The equivalent APAR for WebSphere Application Server Version
    6.x is PK24078.
