Steve Loughran resolved HADOOP-3654. ------------------------------------ Resolution: Later With up to date JRockit not being public, and the Oracle/Sun merger going to make for some interesting JDK futures, marking this as a LATER. If the JRockit codebase moves to being the core JDK, it will surface again. > Log4J logging of stack trace may deadlock JRockit in TestFileSystem > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-3654 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3654 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: conf > Affects Versions: 0.19.0 > Environment: Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64 4-way running java version "1.6.0_02" > Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_02-b05) > BEA JRockit(R) (build R27.4.0-90-89592-1.6.0_02-20070928-1715-linux-x86_64, > compiled mode) > Linux 2.6.22-15-generic #1 SMP Tue Jun 10 08:52:15 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux > Reporter: Steve Loughran > Priority: Minor > Attachments: hadoop-3654.patch > > > This is being added as a bugrep so that other people can find it, and the > workaround > 1. On my machine TestFileSystem will hang, even overnight -even though the > build was set with a timeout. > 2. halting the build left a JVM running; it was not being killed. > 3. Under the IDE, the main thread appears hung in the native library call to > get a stack trace, somewhere inside Log4J > 4. the IDE could not halt the build, and could not be shut down cleanly either > The fix for this problem was to edit conf/log4j.properties and switch to a > log4J log pattern that did not print the line of the code > log4j.appender.console.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r %-5p %c %x - %m%n > Given that working out a stack trace can be an expensive call, and that it > can apparently hang some JVMs, perhaps it should not be the default. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
