Server package deploy failure

[Barry-O]

Hi - just applied SP23 I1 (but had the same issue when testing 23 C1 a while back) to our DV and PY env. I can build a Server package successfully, but when I try to deploy it, it hangs.

I have the following 2 excerpts from SvrBuild.log and a jdedebug.log - which implies some sort of mutex lock issue. It goes no further than where these logs files get to. I have verified (in SAW) that the Package install kernel is running.

--------- SvrBuild.log -----------------------------

---------------------------------------------

One log is from a previous package attempt - but it's always the same

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Barry, you probably already checked this, but was any processing going on the Enterprise Server you were trying to deploy the package to? Lots of time, if I am not careful, my package will be stuck also simply because someone is running a large UBE and I forgot to check. Were your developers running anything at the time? good luck

Thanks Gary - you're right I have checked this. I've tried all combinations of starting and stopping services at all different times.

Once the deploy hangs, and I wait for a long time - no UBEs will run from that point on, so I have to restart the services to get people running again.
