Dear Nic,

I tested with data from production site on staging machine & I used Java 1.6 insted of JAVA 1.7 & Bubbles plugin was working fine, So I can conclude JAVA 1.7 is the issue.

Can you please confirm one thing to me if on production I'm downgrading the JAVA from 1.7 to 1.6t will it will affect anything

Thanks.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Well spotted, I was thinking that the environment might be the next thing to check.

Downgrading Java should be fine in this case. Your Confluence (and associated plugins) are old enough that they should have been written and compiled against Java 1.6. However, "should have" is a long way from "we have tested this carefully"

Dear Nic,

I've created the same satging environment with copy of production data, Can you assist what we need to check or what steps need to follow to check furtherthe issue. Thanks...

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Replicate the error - with the page that fails in live, see what happens in test.

Once you can replicate it, then start disabling/uninstalling the other plugins, one at a time, until the error stops happening

If it doesn't happen in test at all, then you need to start comparing the two systesm to see what the differences are.

Dear Nic,

No I don't use trhe data but i Created Same environment as prduction, Using Confluence 3.3 & Mysql 5.1 & Centos & Java 1.7.0_02 & used same bubble plugin 1.7.5 & also Installed same User Installed Plugins to staging Machine.

Thanks

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Mmm, I didn't think so. The problem you are having happens when your data causes confluence to make calls to code within the plugins. You can't replicate the error because you are looking in a system that doesn't have data that provokes the error.

You need to work with a copy - at the very least of the space that falls over in live.

Dear Nic,

I created one staging environment yesterday & Installed all the user installed plugin one by one in staging machine In comapre to Production found no issue on staging bubble was working fine.

Can you please suggest anything else need to be checked. Many Thanks

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Did you use a copy of the data from production?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Hmm, unusual question, but what other plugins do you have installed? I think this happens when another plugin imports a different library to the one Bubbles was compiled against. Xstream if I remember right, but I can't remember what plugin might be importing a different library.

Dear Nic,

Please confirm if any luck here.

Thanks

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

My instinct is for you to disable (and even uninstall) all the other plugins and retry it. Then re-enable each one in turn and re-test.

Or move to a newer version of Confluence and the Bubbles plugin
