    So all then sudden after weeks of working (10.4.1 Server), my weblog just decided to stop working. I have no idea what caused it, now I get these errors:

    HTTP Status 500 -

type Exception report

message

description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception

    A backup, another box, or install Tiger server on another box/drive, just to get those files.

    sort of a pain in the ass… I hope 10.4.2 fixes this.

    Funny, I just did a fresh 10.4 server install, tested Weblog, worked. I applied all the updates (including 10.4.1) and the Weblog was still working. I go about my business, restart the server a couple times for misc reasons, suddenly Weblog doesn’t work again.

    Second xserve with recent 10.4.1 server update has working Weblog, I’m just waiting for it to stop working now…

    As far as replacing the dir with an old copy, I replaced the ROOT dir and it still isn’t working.

    I found this posting when my weblog broke with the 10.4.2 update so whatever causes it isn’t fixed. Hopefully I can easily fix it.

    This is caused by a blog name with spaces in the shortname.

    Stolen from macosx-server-admin list:

    >> Solution,
    >> Go to /Library/Tomcat/blojsom_root/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/
    >> edit blojsom.properties
    >> and remove from the blojsom-users= entry all names with a space in

    >> Problem solved!

    Of course in my case, with only a single blog, on 2 different servers, this is not a solution.

    Has anyone else come across a fix for this DUMB bug?

    I followed the instructions, removed the spaces, and the weblog FINALLY began to work again. Thanks

    Why is this not on Apple’s site?

    This does not solve the problem for those of us who do NOT have blogs with spaces in the usernames..
