Environment

  • Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP) 15.8
  • The Enforce is installed on RHEL 7.x.
  • Enforce on Windows is unaffected

Resolution

The below workaround has been shown to resolve this issue. There are two methods to implement the workaround:

Method 1:

Manually edit configuration file and restart DLP Manager Service:

As root:

1. vi SymantecDLPManager.conf
2. set wrapper.java.additional.7 = -Djava.awt.headless=true
3. Restart manager service.

Method 2:

Use the below script to update SymantecDLPManager.conf

#!/bin/bash

yes | /bin/cp /opt/Symantec/DataLossPrevention/EnforceServer/Services/SymantecDLPManager.conf /opt/Symantec/DataLossPrevention/EnforceServer/Services/SymantecDLPManager.conf.BAK

sed -i 's/Djava.awt.headless=false/Djava.awt.headless=true/' /opt/Symantec/DataLossPrevention/EnforceServer/Services/SymantecDLPManager.conf

service SymantecDLPManagerService restart

exit 0

If the above does not resolve the issue, open a case with Broadcom Technical Support
