On Fri, Jun 20, 2014 at 7:23 AM, Udara Liyanage <ud...@wso2.com<mailto:ud...@wso2.com>> wrote: Hi, Please refer to [1]. Same applies for Apache Stratos. You don't need to build the whole product, only related jar need to be patched. [1] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11306929/how-to-apply-patch-files-in-wso2-carbon This is the correct approach. Another point is that if you directly replace the original jar file with your patched jar in patch0000 and plugins directories, the original jar that was in the product would be lost, if you explicitly did not take a backup. By following the proper patching process as explained in Udara's link, this issue won't be there. When you need to remove the patched jar, just remove the directory that includes your patched jar (ex. patch0200, etc.). The patched stratos.war file should be replaced in repository/deployment/server/webapps directory. There will be an already existing stratos.war file and a stratos directory (exploded file from the war), delete them both and copy the patched stratos.war there. Touched, not typed. Erroneous words are a feature, not a typo.

For example, to patch a change in the autoscaler I - stopped stratos, replace the jars and restarted stratos again. e.g replaced the following 2 jars : /opt/wso2/apache-stratos/repository/components/patches/patch0000/org.apache.stratos.autoscaler_4.0.0.jar; /opt/wso2/apache-stratos/repository/components/plugins/org.apache.stratos.autoscaler_4.0.0.jar; However, now, every time I replace a jar, even so the source hasn’t changed compared to the original binary, the system fails to come up and hangs there : ID: [0] [STRATOS] [2014-06-19 22:37:26,613] WARN {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} - Carbon initialization is delayed due to the following unsatisfied items: {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2014-06-19 22:37:26,613] WARN {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} - Waiting for required OSGiAxis2Service: org.apache.stratos.manager-4.0.0 {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2014-06-19 22:38:26,613] WARN {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} - Carbon initialization is delayed due to the following unsatisfied items: {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} TID: [0] [STRATOS] [2014-06-19 22:38:26,613] WARN {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} - Waiting for required OSGiAxis2Service: org.apache.stratos.manager-4.0.0 {org.wso2.carbon.core.init.CarbonServerManager} As of now it seems my only choice is to rebuild the whole system to test some changes ? Is there a recommended patch sequence to test code changes by just patching single jar files ? What about the REST API (stratos.war) ? Any ideas to get my patch process back to work, otherwise, the option to rebuild all binaries + upload takes a long time and is very inefficient for development ? Thanks Martin
