Unlock a library

Long running tasks can lock libraries. To unlock a library...

1. Enable the UnlockLibrary tool by adding the following parameters to the WCM WCMConfigService service...
   • connect.businesslogic.module.unlocklibrary.class=com.aptrix.pluto.security.UnlockLibraryModule
   • connect.businesslogic.module.unlocklibrary.remoteaccess=true
   • connect.businesslogic.module.unlocklibrary.autoload=false

   UnlockLibrary only unlocks a web content library, not the items stored in the web content library.

2. Restart portal server

3. Log in to the portal as an administrator.

4. Go to...
   http://hostname.myco.com:port/wps/wcm/connect?MOD=UnlockLibrary&library=libraryname

Example: Locked WCM Libraries

We can unlock a library, but it does not stay unlocked after restart. To debug...

1. Unlock library...

   http://host1:10040/wps/wcm/connect?MOD=UnlockLibrary&library=MyCo_Content_Library

2. Use IBM Support Tools to review node information...

   

3. In dmgr for host1, set trace...

   com.ibm.workplace.wcm.services.library.*=finest

4. Restart portal server.

5. Check log files for...

   s_log.log(Level.FINER, "Entering deleteLibrary() for library: " + p_library.getName()); 11:14:37 AM

   Alternate trace string...

   com.aptrix.*=finest:com.ibm.workplace.wcm.*=finest:com.presence.*=finest

6. Display node information...
   • displayNodeV3.pdf
   • displayLocks.jsp
   • displayNodeV3.jsp

   Example output for locked library...

7. Another alternative is to stop portal, then delete contents of PROFILE_HOME/tranlog.
