After upgrading java to JRE 7 the dbx app doesn't return any search results and after a while even the searchead crashes completely.
We have a integration environment and a production environment. Funny enough in the integration environment it works since i added the debug = true key to the config file whereas in the production environment there is no change. Even with the debug = true set there is not a single entry in the dbx debug log.
update: there is actually something in the logs:
