Solving FNRCE0010E: E_BAD_VALUE

While preparing for the upgrade of FileNet from 4.0 to 5.1 we decided to upgrade WebSphere in the existing development environment from 7.0 to 8.0. We therefore uninstalled WAS, and left all other FileNet installation as is. While reapplying all FileNet configuration to the new WAS installation we got a problem with the Content Engine. The CE System Health page reports problems and both the p8_server_error.log and p8_server_trace.log was constantly filling up with enormous amounts of data. The errors being repeated was (showing only parts of it)


FNRCE0010E - ERROR method name: masterDecryptDecode principal name: xxxUSERNAMExxxx Global Transaction: false User Transaction.....
FNRCE0010E: E_BAD_VALUE: The value given for a property or list element lies outside the permitted range or value set...

It turned out to be caused by a change of admin uid. Initally the environment was installed using uid X, but at a given time it was decided to change it to uid Y. Since the CE ear-file was configured using X and we tried to use uid Y this was causing the error. ECM Place to the rescue, see P8 CE 4.5.1 on W2K3 x64 broke?.

List out and later reapply new user using the following commands


java -jar <CE>\lib\bootstraps.jar -e <old ear file> -l
java -jar <CE>\lib\bootstraps.jar -e <old ear file> -j <new ear file>

Since I do not buy cd’s anymore

My old blog, which really just is a category instead of a blog, the cdonly is close to dead since I do not buy cd’s anymore. But I still listen to music, so I will instead blog about albums I listen to – and my own criteria will be that I must have listened to all songs on the album. Same as for the “Spinning to music”, but since I listen to music in the car and at work as well…

  • West of Memphis: Voices for justice. Read more about it at Indiewire.com. Many songs I enjoyed, such as the covers of “Little Lion Man” originally by Mumford & Sons and also my favorite hangover song “Mother” by legendary Pink Floyd. Now also listening to The White Buffalo since he also has a song on the album.
  • On my way to my in-laws last Sunday, I listened to Orango and their latest album Colonial Militia vol 2. Enjoy the genre and therefore this is my kinda a music as well, but I did not get a kick of it so it does not get high rotation on my playlist.

Unable to start WebSphere on Windows

Had an issue just now trying to start an application server running on Windows 2008. Got error messages in SystemOut such as

CWXRS0024E: Failed to write out object:
CWRLS0008E: Recovery log is being marked as failed.
CWRLS0009E: Details of recovery log failure ... (Access is denied)

In addition I also experienced that the NodeAgent would not start without any obvious reason, but if I deleted all log files it started.

Turned out to be caused by me not having started the command window with the “Run as Administrator”-option. I was allowed to create files, therefore the nodeagent started, but not allowed to change existing files, therefore the nodeagent did not start until I had deleted them. The app servers did try to write to other files as well, therefore it did not do the trick for them just to delete their log files.
