Potential RCA

The clusterTemplate will look for some files from ../../../../../utilities/custom-hostname-verifier/, which seems to depend on the recent changes of parent pom com.microsoft.azure.iaas:azure-javaee-iaas-parent:

• https://github.com/oracle/weblogic-azure/blob/main/weblogic-azure-vm/arm-oraclelinux-wls-cluster/arm-oraclelinux-wls-cluster/src/main/arm/nestedtemplates/clusterTemplate.json#L530-L533

Specifically, the dependent parent pom com.microsoft.azure.iaas:azure-javaee-iaas-parent has been updated to 1.0.15 in order to add utilities directory from WebLogic offers, see PR-24. However, the old version 1.0.13 and its commit hash 13fe6ec487024eb61355d661ab5700ae90cb0a8f are NOT updated accordingly:

• https://github.com/oracle/weblogic-azure/blob/main/weblogic-azure-vm/arm-oraclelinux-wls-cluster/arm-oraclelinux-wls-cluster/pom.xml#L20
  • Should be updated to 1.0.15?
• https://github.com/oracle/weblogic-azure/blob/main/.github/workflows/buildWlsVm4CcArtifact.yml#L23
  • Should be updated to 062fe0eb4e72012ead98c23e1a1b2c6259e7e7c4?

It looks like all upstream WebLogic offers that're impacted by the PR-24 should be checked, verified and updated appropriately.

@edburns PR #131 should be merged and released to Partner Center ASAP, since the offer from marketplace or azure portal has already broken.

The new release of WLS cluster on Azure including the fix is available. I tested it and all work as expected. Closing the issue now.
