The Xpages app is a few years old, but now, any updates to an existing Xpage breaks it with a browser message:
HTTP Web Server: Item Not Found Exception
The xpages_exec log shows:
com.ibm.xsp.page.PageNotFoundException: Could not create the page /Cards.xsp because the class xsp.Cards could not be found. Please check your spelling.
This occurs even if simply resaving a working Xpage; the Xpage class will no longer be found. Same if simply renaming or copying an Xpage. I have used Domino Designer on other workstations with the same results on the server.
Perhaps this is a JVM run time issue? The server console shows the JVM version:
JVM: Java Virtual Machine initialized.
Java runtime version: 8.0.5.6 - pwa6480sr5fp6-20171124_02(SR5 FP6)
JVM version: JRE 1.8.0 Windows Server 2008 R2 amd64-64 20171122_371101 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled) OpenJ9 - 8e3c85d OMR - 713f08e IBM - c041ee8
The Domino Designer Java compiler workspace settings JDK compliance level is set to 1.5 with JRE 1.6 installed.
How might I determine why after new build of an Xpage causes the Xpage class to no longer be found?
UPDATE: from the xpages exec log:
1/16/20 12:33 PM: Exception Thrown
com.ibm.xsp.page.PageNotFoundException: Could not create the page /Cards.xsp because the class xsp.Cards could not be found. Please check your spelling.
