1.3 Next UMD releases
2 Operational issues
2.1 Updates from DMSU
Jobs aborted with the error "CREAM'S database has been scratched and all its jobs have been lost"
see details in GGUS #95559
Since Sep 13th (at least with WMS servers at CNAF) almost all the production jobs are failing, mainly due to two bugs: for the first one, (almost) all the jobs in the ICE DB are marked with DB_ID=0; for the second bug, a particular CE (prod-ce-01.pd.infn.it) was triggering the signal of deleting the jobs with DB_ID=0. All the WMS servers which contacted that CE are affected by this issue
It was found out that CREAM CE(s) are sending (since a certain date) an empty DB_ID information as result of an interoperability problem (missing SOAP_HEADER) between gSOAP and Axis2 (ICE uses gSOAP, CREAM uses Axis2 as SOAP frameworks).
The fix (CREAM-125) has been already committed: with the new version of glite-ce-cream-client-api-c CREAM re-starts to send to ICE a not empty DB_ID in the JobRegister query
Other tickets opened for this issue: GGUS #97360 GGUS #97402 GGUS #97420 GGUS #97453
