Description Glyn Normington CLA 2010-10-20 06:52:15 EDT 
Currently the hosted repository PAR is deployed via pickup but this means any remote repository in the chain will not be available until the hosted repo PAR has started successfully. This can introduce a race with an application deployed in pickup, or even via the admin console, which needs a dependency from a remote repo.

The proposed solution is to change the user region properties to add the hosted repo PAR to the initialArtifacts property so that the PAR is started before any recovery or deployment from pickup or the admin console takes place.

A slight downside of such a change is that it would then be a little more difficult to remove the hosted repository application if it was not needed.

Actually, when I went back and resubmitted the post, it worked, so my login must have been re-established? So I can't easily provide a screenshot of what went wrong the first time. It's still a problem though as it's unintuitive and has caused me to lose work in the past and so I think it will affect many other users.

Comment 1 is against the wrong bug. Please ignore it.
