Lucee 5.3.9.133 - Calling "Extension > Applications" results in timeout error

dev support
#1

Hello,

unfortunately, after the Lucee update from version 5.3.8.206 to version 5.3.9.133, I unexpectedly encountered errors. After updating Lucee to version 5.3.9.133, I was no longer able to go to “Extension → Applications” in Server Admin. The request always ended in a timeout and a very long error message was displayed (see ZIP file). Among other things, the error message contained the following:

org.osgi.framework.BundleException The OSGi Bundle with name [lucee.image.extension] is not available in version [1.0.0.42] locally (/opt/lucee/hometix1/tomcat/lucee-server/bundles) or from the update provider (https://update.lucee.org), the following versions are available locally [1.1.0.3-SNAPSHOT, 1.0.0.38, 1.0.0.39]. /admin/ext.functions.cfm:204

This error message gave me the following idea:

  1. First I downgraded Lucee again from version 5.3.9.133 to version 5.3.8.206.
  2. Then in Lucee 5.3.8.206 I downgraded the “Image extension” from version 1.1.0.3-SNAPSHOT to version 1.0.0.42.
  3. After that I then updated Lucee from version 5.3.8.206 to version 5.3.9.133.
  4. In the server admin “Extension → Applications” could now be called without any problems.
  5. Finally, I updated the “Image extension” to version 1.2.0.0-SNAPSHOT without any problems.

Maybe this will help someone who may encounter the same problems?!

@Knut Nice workaround for this.

Until today I also thought that this was a good workaround, but… :frowning_face:

when I called “Extension > Applications” in the server admin today, the same timeout occurred again because Lucee was again looking in vain for the Image extension version 1.0.0.42

org.osgi.framework.BundleException The OSGi Bundle with name [lucee.image.extension] is not available in version [1.0.0.42] locally (/opt/lucee/hometix1/tomcat/lucee-server/bundles) or from the update provider (https://update.lucee.org), the following versions are available locally [1.1.0.3-SNAPSHOT, 1.0.0.38, 1.0.0.39]. /admin/ext.functions.cfm:204

So I had to downgrade again to Image extension version 1.0.0.42 by putting the “lucee.image.extension-1.0.0.42.lex” file in the deploy folder.

Unfortunately, I can’t currently use the image extension version 1.2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.

By the way:
If I uninstall the Image extension 1.0.0.42, I would have expected that the file “B737ABC4-D43F-4D91-8E8E973E37C40D1B-1.0.0.42.lex” would be listed under “/lucee-server/context/extensions/available”, but it is not listed. All Lex files listed in the “/lucee-server/context/extensions/available” directory are quite old and date from January and July 2021
