Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-3347:
-------------------------------------------
Another related problem:
Before DERBY-801, there would be only one thread reading/writing the same data
file at a time. After DERBY-801, there could be many threads accessing the same
data file concurrently, but this should be OK since they would access different
pages (read/write to the same page will be serialized by
BasePage.setExclusive()). There is however no mechanism, as far as I can see,
that prevents concurrent updates of the container information in page 0 and
normal page updates that touch page 0. So I think it is possible that updates
to the container information section of page 0 are lost because concurrent
updates of AllocPage 0 overwrite the new information with the old value. We
probably need to find a way to prevent AllocPage 0 from being cleaned while the
container is being cleaned (that is, RAFContainer4.writePage(pageId=0) and
RAFContainer.writeRAFHeader() must be serialized somehow).

> Key: DERBY-3347
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3347
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Store
> Affects Versions: 10.3.1.4, 10.3.2.1
> Environment: Windows 2003 Server
> Sun Java 1.6.0_03
> Reporter: Bogdan Calmac

> We are using derby as an embedded DB for our data collection server. During
> an endurance test when we do around 270 inserts and 9 updates per second, for
> about a week, I ocasionally see the error below in the deby log (and nothing
> else beside this).
> This is a vanilla installation, we run derby embedded with no extra
> configuration. I can confirm that there is no memory problem, the heap usage
> seems constant over time.
> Can somebody provide some more information regarding the effects of this
> error? By looking at the stacktrace, it looks like a checkpoint operation is
> aborted due to some inconsistency in the internal data structure. If the
> error does not repeat immediately, does it mean that the next checkpoint is
> successful and there is no data loss?
> I can't provide a test case for that, the error happens after about 1-2 day
> of running our software. I will rerun the test with the debug jars to capture
> the line numbers in the stacktrace. Also, I'm starting another test with
> 10.2.2.0, to see if this problem was introduced in the latest version.
> There are another two bugs referring to this error,
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2284 and
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3087) but they seem to happen in
> response to some client action. This use case is a bit different, the client
> keeps inserting and updating records for several days in a steady manner and
> at some point the error pops up.
> And lastly, here is the exception:
> Checkpoint Daemon caught standard exception
