Email Service not working after upgrading to Service Pack 14

Hi All,

Recently we have upgraded to Service pack 14 on AEM forms JEE, and after upgrading to SP14, almost all our services are working as expected except the email service.
on AdminUI, what we have observed that Foundation Email service is missing the configuration tab and we are not able to start/stop the service.

we have observed the below logs while trying to manually start the service :

Jar file : com.adobe.livecycle.procmgmt.userlistlo_9.0.0.v2009009-0231.jar does not exist in component : com.adobe.livecycle.Email.6.5.0.020220820
0000009bf ServiceStore E COULD NOT PROCESS SERVICE : EMAIL SERVICE VERSION 1.0 MARKING AS INACTIVE. The Exception is : org.json.simple.parser.ParseException  caused by java.lang.ClassnameNotFoundException : Class name from org.json.simple.parser.ParseException  from package org.json.simple.parser not found

LocalException E CNTR0020E : EJB threw an unexpected (non-declared) exception during invocation of method "doBMT" on bean "beanID(AdobeExperienceManagerforms#adobe-dscf.jar#EjbTransactionBMTAdapter, null)". Exception data : java.lang.IllegalStateException : Service : EmailService Version 1.0 must be in a stop state prior to starting.

If there is a certain JAR missing as suggested by first line error line. where can we verify it for sure?

Thanks,
Rajat

This known issue is now fixed with the latest version of the product, and you can follow the below-mentioned steps to mitigate the issue on the current version:

  1. Take a backup of the EAR under <C:\Adobe\Adobe_Experience_Manager_Forms\configurationManager\export\adobe-livecycle-websphere.ear>
  2. Open MANIFEST.MF under <C:\Adobe\Adobe_Experience_Manager_Forms\configurationManager\export\adobe-livecycle-websphere.ear\adobe-dscf.jar\META-INF> using 7-zip (or any other similar software) and add <httpclient-4.5.13.jar javax.mail-1.6.2.jar httpcore-4.4.13.jar json-simple-1.1.1.jar> to the classpath as shown in the screenshot.
 
  1. Save the MANIFEST.MF file, zip the adobe-livecycle-websphere.ear and do a clean redeployment of this EAR. Make sure the EAR is not corrupt.

Please reach out to support in case of any further issues.

Hope this helps!

Hi @pulkit_jain_ ,
Thank you for the providing the resolution on this issue. 
I followed the same steps to add the classes in the manifest.mf file of Adobe\Adobe_Experience_Manager_Forms\configurationManager\export\adobe-livecycle-websphere.ear\adobe-dscf.jar\
and deployed the adobe-livecycle-websphere.ear EAR again. 
It worked as a charm!! 
Always a great & prompt response from the community!

Just out of curiosity, is the steps provided in here [0]
https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-65/forms/troubleshooting/additional-steps-to-use-email-with-attachments.html?lang=en
corresponds to the same issue and resolution under the hood?

The change provided with this document is somewhat related to the actual issue, but in addition to that, this issue is specifically related to a recent change w.r.t OAuth, and certain jars were newly added. 

The jars were there but were not picked by the Websphere classpath.
