Chapter 6. Known issues See Known Issues for JBoss EAP 7.4 to view the list of known issues for this release. 6.1. Changed behaviors for JBoss EAP 7.4 Setting OPENSHIFT_DNS_PING_SERVICE_NAME to an empty value results in boot error Do not set OPENSHIFT_DNS_PING_SERVICE_NAME to an empty value. A boot error occurs and clustering is disabled. Unpredictable web session expiration Previously, JBoss EAP mistakenly recalculated some web session timeouts, and these sessions did not expire as specified in the web application configuration file (such as web.xml , jboss-web.xml or jboss-all.xml ). JBoss EAP no longer performs this mistaken calculation, so web sessions now expire as specified in the application configuration. Memory leaks in distributed JSF applications when caching managed beans in a WebInjectionContainer JBoss EAP cluster membership changes, such as starting or stopping a server, can cause the events that correspond to a given session to resume on a different cluster member than the one that last handled those events. Specifically, org.jboss.as.web.common.WebInjectionContainer caches references to all managed beans and their references so that it can call ManagedReference.release , which causes a memory leak. This issue affects distributed Jakarta Server Faces (JSF) applications that use the JBoss EAP high-availability (HA) server configuration. References to session-scoped beans can persist after the associated HTTP session expires, if a different cluster member handles that expiration. As a workaround, change the distributable-web subsystem like in the following example: Java.lang.NullPointerException error when using ibm-java-1.8 and Bouncy Castle If you're directly or indirectly using the Bouncy Castle provider with IBM JDK 1.8 on JBoss EAP, you might get the following error: To work around this issue, modify your JBoss EAP module.xml structure similarly to that of the WFLY-14688 diff, which you can access in the Additional resources section.
