Troubleshooting
Problem
If you have the following configuration element definitions, the configuration elements are incorrectly merged:
- A top-level configuration element of the same type as a nested configuration element with the same ID
- Two nested configuration elements of the same type with the same ID but with different parents
For example: Data source []ds1[] and data source []ds2[] are configured with their own properties element definition, []dbProperties[].
[]
]
Data source []ds1[] should use properties element []dbProperties[] with []portNumber="3000"[], and data source []ds2[] should use properties element []dbProperties[] with []portNumber="2000"[].
However, the two []dbProperties[] properties elements are merged and both data sources share this merged properties element. The merged []dbProperties[] properties element may have either []portNumber="3000"[] or []portNumber="2000"[].
Symptom
Unexpected or wrong configuration properties are provided to server components or applications.
Resolving The Problem
Ensure that you specify unique IDs for either or both of the following situations:
- A top-level configuration element of the same type as a nested configuration element
- Two nested configuration elements of the same type but with different parents
