Problem:

TIBCO Spotfire Server with ActiveSpaces clustering installation error "Active Spaces policy file is not found"


Solution:

After setting up TIBCO Spotfire Server clustering with ActiveSpaces, you may come across an issue where the initialization fails. Error in the Spotfire server's server.log follows. 

ERROR 2017-04-27T12:44:41,488-0300 [*Initialization*] server.cluster.RetryHelper: Invocation failed. Retries exceeded.
FATAL 2017-04-27T12:44:41,488-0300 [*Initialization*] server.cluster.ActiveSpacesClusterInstance: Failed to join cluster. Cluster members list is empty.
ERROR 2017-04-27T12:45:08,825-0300 [*Initialization*] server.cluster.RetryHelper: Function execution failed. Retry count: 0

  Ensure the as-common.jar (for ActiveSpaces) is copied correctly and only once to the <Spotfire Server install dir>\tomcat\webapps\spotfire\WEB-INF\lib folder on each server machine. Doc: TIBCO Spotfire Server Installation and Administration > Setting up a cluster of Spotfire Servers
