Description Jan Hutař 2013-12-10 08:52:46 UTC 
Description of problem:
When tomcat is starting it downloads some data from terracotta.org


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tomcat-7.0.42-1.fc19.noarch
spacewalk-java-2.1.90-1.fc19.noarch
quartz-1.8.4-5.fc19.noarch
quartz-oracle-1.8.4-5.fc19.noarch


How reproducible:
usually


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Restart your Spacewalk installation and watch traffic
   generated - only localhost should be involved


Actual results:
There is a traffic to terracotta.org, tomcat needs ~60s to start.


Expected results:
Tomcat should not reveal your Spacewalk location to external parties (terracotta.org) by doing any traffic to them.

This happens on F19 and F18 SWnightly builds only. Not on RHEL6 and RHEL5 ones.

After editing ehcache-failsafe.xml in /usr/share/java/ehcache-core.jar the bug doesn't occur anymore.

As an attribute of the root element:
updateCheck="false"
