Hi, You can find below the description of the issue I encountered for a while ago now. The problem was never solved. However, I thought about writing a summary as a colleague found yesterday that this was likely due to a patch issue. The reason why he suspects that is that after jump-starting the same server, but not installing patches during the jump-start (under /a), but installing patches after a reboot, the problem was gone. However, if jump-starting the server as we did earlier and installing the patches as a standard post-installation procedure (under /a) the problem was back. Don't ask me why !? I had one or two questions recently about people who encountered a similar issue and who were asking if I had found a solution. So I am posting that update/summary. Which patch(es) is/are or might cause the trouble, I don't know ! Regards, /Pascal Pascal Grostabussiat wrote: > Hi guys, > > this is turning me crazy and I might have got blind.
