Rich Scheuerle commented on WSCOMMONS-506: ------------------------------------------ Andreas, Okay, I understand your concern, and I will follow-up with more comments later today. I agree that the current solution is a necessary fallback when Axis2/Axiom or customer code fails to properly manage the lifecycle of the resource. I agree that this fallback is a tactical solution. More work may be necessary in Axiom attachments to (a) understand and (b) correctly manage the lifecycle of file resources. Thanks for digging. > Temporary copies of MTOM attachments are not deleted from the file system in > a timely manner > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: WSCOMMONS-506 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSCOMMONS-506 > Project: WS-Commons > Issue Type: Bug > Components: AXIOM > Reporter: Wendy Raschke > Assignee: Rich Scheuerle > Attachments: WSCOMMONS-506.patch > > > When customers send MTOM attachments having a certain size, the Axis2 runtime > uses Axiom to make copies of these attachments and name them with a pattern > of AxisXXXXXX.att, where XXXXXX is an arbitrary sequence of integers. These > copies may not be deleted in a timely manner, and may be removed only when > the JVM exits. This can cause a lot of files to accumulate on the customer's > file system and eat up disk space, and some of these files can be quite large. > Note that the internal sizeThreshold property controls whether attachment > files are written to memory or as files to the disk. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
