Symptoms

This issue is experienced under the following circumstances:

1. Deploy a new application (any kind of web/ear in exploded format) to any of the managed servers
2. Log on to an Admin console, make any changes and "Activate" on "activate changes" task, and then stop one of the managed server instances which is in the target list.
3. As a result, the activation task is running forever and it is not possible to cancel it.

The symptoms experienced were:

• Constantly experience extensive downtimes while deploying new applications.
• Activation task of new deployment from WLS admin console hangs forever.
• Must restart the admin server to be able to cancel deployment, then stop all managed servers in domain and manually remove local configuration copies, as "undo" operation in admin server doesn't reflect on managed server side and with different configuration copies not possible to do ANY changes in admin console.
• Only workaround is to stop all managed servers in domain, manually remove each local tmp/* servers/* config/* and start over.
• When consulting the log files, the following errors are found in the managed server logs:
