Hi Roland! I was out on vacation, so sorry for may delayed response. Its exactly happed like I described. The JVM was still running but the actorsystem was gone of course with all its actors.
Sometimes the problem occurred after a few minutes sometimes it happed after a few hours. Before the incident happened our system behaved like it should. Due to unknown reason sometimes the actorsystem stopped to work. In the log files we did not find any log-entries from our postStop() functions of our actors. Thats why we added a println() to the shutdown hook of the actorsystem, and this lines we did find at our console after the incident happened again. As I mentioned above after we switched back to akka 2.3.7 (which is also used by all systems who are remotly talking to us) the problem did not occur again. Regards Wolfgang Am Freitag, 30.
