    Staff Course Reserves module will not stay up

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 18.01

    Description:
    Since last night our Course Reserves module is consistently unavailable. I have re-started the web server countless times today to try and keep it up, but to no avail.

    The OPAC is not affected, but users consistently cannot log in to the course reserves module. Either nothing happens at all when you try to get in, or you get the error:

    'Not Found The requested URL /&server_staff/file/s-main-1 was not found on this server'

    or the error:

    'The requested file was not found on the server....'

    I have checked the www_server.log. I see the following error in the log but don't know what it means or if it's even related to the course reserves going down:

    WWW-F : FULL-SET-SET
    Enviroment Table needs more than 1000 lines
    Enviroment Table needs more than 1000 lines
    Enviroment Table needs more than 1000 lines
    Enviroment Table needs more than 1000 lines
    Enviroment Table needs more than 1000 lines
    Enviroment Table needs more than 1000 lines

    Resolution:
    Display's which I put in the ./www_com/www_correct_line program show that ">" values are being treated as getenv variables by the program and are filling up the Environment table:

    This problem started occurring yesterday afternoon, around 4:30. I think it may be related to one or both of these ./www_f_eng/ files which were last changed yesterday afternoon at 4:45:

    -rwxrwxr-x 1 aleph aleph 16089 Sep 17 16:46 short-a-body-bcser*
    -rwxrwxr-x 1 aleph aleph 16171 Sep 17 16:47 short-a-body-bcl01*

    I suggest that you back out these changes and restart the www_server.
