Re: Caught Exception issue... (Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes)
I installed the February Hotfix in my test environment. Interestingly, it seems to have changed the font used for Remedy as well. Was this intentional? The earlier zip file appears to be corrupt on the FTP site but I assume it must not be necessary with all the files changed by the later one.

Status Reason field synchronization between HPD:Help Desk and HPD:IncidentInterface
Hello List, Again I need your assistance in following issue- 1. On HPD:Help Desk form, under field Status_Reason_Hidden I have added few more selection values. 2. Join form HPD:IncidentInterface, Status_Reason field is referred from Status_Reason_Hidden field of its base form HPD:Help Desk Form. 3. Status Reason field of Join form HPD:IncidentInterface does not get updated for its new values from Status_Reason_Hidden field of HPD:Help Desk form. ( I assumed if we add new values in field of base form, it gets updated automatically in the same field of Join form also). 4. I tried to delete field Status_Reason from HPD:IncidentInterface form so that I can again add it from base form HPD:Help Desk, but it is not getting deleted. I am not sure why, is it because this field is referred in the webservice created on form HPD:IncidentInterface form? Can someone please assist me as how to get Status Reason field values in sync between HPD:Help Desk and HPD:IncidentInterface forms?

Re: Caught Exception issue... (Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes)
We are also consistently having this issue with it getting much worse with the move from 7.6 – 8.1, although this would also be in line with users moving from IE 8 to v9 or v10. As others have mentioned some people get it consistently while others never get it. I have been unable to identify anything different between the users setup. Our AR, ITSM, Mid Tier are all 8.1 patch 1. I have not had the chance to try the latest service pack so it would be great to hear if it resolves or even helps this issue. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years

I installed the February hotfix on our 8.1 test mid-tier server. We are still getting caught exception errors. I have a webex today with BMC support.

Re: Caught Exception issue... (Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes)
Regarding the caught exception errors, we've noticed 2 issues. One is the cache issue (which only happens to some users) and the other is a compatibility issue with IE9 and IE10. I've seen probably 20 or 30 various caught exception errors. There is one specifically related to the compatibility issue. That error is Caught exception :Unable to get value of the property 'nodeType': object is null or undefined. The only difference between that error and the other cache related errors is 'nodetype'. When we see that 'nodetype' error, we send the users instructions on how to run in compatibility mode. If it's a different Caught exception error, we have to clear the cache. I'm curious if others have noticed something different. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of SUBSCRIBE ARSLIST theReel Sent: Friday, February 07, 2014 6:16 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Caught Exception issue...

Re: Caught Exception issue... (Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes)
Based on an earlier email in this thread the first thing I would try in your situation would be to upgrade Tomcat. I can confirm that the upgrade I did to Tomcat a few nights ago helped in my organization. It didn't resolve everything as we were able to get a weird random HTTP 500 error (which required the user to clear his browser cache) but that is much more rare than the Caught Exception errors or the Tomcat crashes that we were getting before.

Re: Caught Exception issue... (Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes)
Tony, We are on the latest Hot Fix and still not working. Our only solution for now is to tell our customer to revert to IE8 for now until we have a fix in place. BMC is telling us they have their top engineer on our particular issue looking at all our logs, def files etc. We have had many webex with the support team. We are now setting up a webex with that top engineer. One thing that kind of work for us is to clear the cookies since clearing the cache and compatibility mode doesn't work. That doesn't fix the entire issue but partially makes it workable.

(Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes) We are also consistently having this issue with it getting much worse with the move from 7.6 – 8.1, although this would also be in line with users moving from IE 8 to v9 or v10. As others have mentioned some people get it consistently while others never get it. I have been unable to identify anything different between the users setup.

Subject Caught Exception issue... (Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes)
Shawn: The http 500 error is caused by the application crashing. Tomcat will write the stack trace to localhost.log and typically to the screen too. If you search your log files for exception, you probably have lots. Our lives, debugging SSO issues, is often made tough through log files that are literally an ocean of exceptions (usually from the over-engineered cache). The Caught Exception problem seems to be a catch all piece of Javascript, effectively swallowing all the evidence required to fix the core fault in the Javascript. It looks like someone added this catch all, and now BMC support is flooded with quality issues, but can not reproduce them as the evidence (stack trace, stack contents, item of workflow being executed) is lost. The poster who deletes the cache on startup provides interesting feedback on the Mid Tier cache. I literally don't understand why it exists on disc given Mid Tier crawls ITSM, bringing Tomcat to a standstill, for 30minutes after Tomcat starts. The idea of a cache is to avoid refetching data! :) I have looked at how I can rewrite the caching but the problems go too deep into Mid Tier. I put some tracing around it and discovered, in places, Mid Tier is loading all the fields on a form and then not using them. I concluded that without source code, I couldn't make the cache work efficiently. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years

We are currently running on Weblogic 10.5 with ARS 764 sp2, Midtier Version 8.1.00 201310040425 Hotfix. We are also having the same issue. BMC has said that the latest hot fix solves a lot of the issues. We have applied it to our dev server but we could never reproduce the error in that env. so I am not sure if it fixes anything. My understand some caching logic was changed: The logic was changed so that if a problem is detected, then the error is still displayed but nothing is stored to memory. Thus the next time the object is requested, Midtier will try to cache it again... hopefully more successful the second time.In addition, the error should give a date/time stamp of the error in the midtier log for further investigation. 1.

Re: Caught Exception issue... (Mid Tier 8.1 Hotfixes)
The bad thing is I need IE 11 to solve a completely separate issue. The issue is my users want an easier way to put a screenshot into a ticket. The current process is: User gets an error in an app. Take a screenshot (PrtScn). Open up Word Paste the screenshot Save the file. Open the help desk web page to create a ticket and enters info needed. We have a button to add attachments, so the user clicks the button and adds the saved word file. Click submit to create the ticket. Since we are on 7.6.04 I figured Hey I can add a Rich Text field to the help desk form for them to paste into. I added the field on Dev and tried it. Take screenshot (PrtScn) Open up dev help desk page in FireFox Select the new screenshot field and paste; Eureka, the printscreen image is there (Found out it is an inline image img src=data:image/png;base64,EncodedImageDataHere alt= ) The problem comes in when I try it with IE. When I paste the screenshot image nothing appears. I open word and paste and the image is there, so I know it is in the buffer. Doing some Google searches I find out IE doesn't support accessing the buffer for anything except text until IE 11. Don't you just love working with computers on some days?
