Remedy is to use thread pool(s), and not create local Threads - with the exception of situation when local thread lives no longer than original request.

I used the scheduler's thread pool, and that's when the problem appeared.

Hm...


If thread lives longer than request, use RunnableManager (or Cron), which are using thread pools. Thread from the thread pool should be set up with environment / processor, and it will be independent of http environment which triggered the job.


Yes, I know that (having largely contributed to the CocoonJobExecutor). The problem is the inheritance of the enviroment stack between threads (either in the pool or brand new ones) and their parent, which happens to be the servlet engine's thread that processed the very first request in the case of RunnableManager.

Wait a sec, RunnableManager is setup when Cocoon servlet is initialized, and this is happening on the web application startup. At that time, there is no any environemnt setup - as no Servlet.process() was called yet. If yours RunnableManager is setup during Servlet.process(), it's some other problem, IMHO.

Anyways, RunnableManager's pools MUST NOT inherit any variables, IMHO. I think you meant the same.


CocoonQuartzJobExecutor already has enterEnv/leaveEnv, so it should work, if you have issues with it - what are they?

Well, read the explanation above :-)

Did not made sense to me :-( I clearly see each time in the logs:

INFO (2005-05-30) 23:18.23:295 [core.runnable] (Unknown-URI) Unknown-Thread/DefaultRunnableManager: ThreadPool named "daemon" created with no queue,max-pool-size=2147483647,min-pool-size=1,priority=5,isDaemon=true,keep-alive-time-ms=60000,block-policy=ABORT,shutdown-wait-time-ms=-1

So pool has been created before any http environment has been created, and from my reading of InheritableThreadLocal javadoc, it creates a copy of self for the child thread, not reference - so threads are not sharing same ThreadLocal, so this pool should not ever get a http environment.

What's missing? :-?


If a CronJob uses the SourceResolver to process a "cocoon:" URI, the corresponding pipeline occasionally gets recycled in the middle of its processing.

Is it reproducable with the samples? Probably adding pipeline with a delay will show this?

I did read now (email is async!) :-)

I don't see the behavior you are describing. Pools are created way before that.
