Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-1933:
-----------------------------------------
The best would be to create a "minimal" servlet and upload it here. With
"minimal" I mean the smallest possible code that still produces the effect.
> PDFParser loops infinitely when loaded by JSP instead of NetBeans

> Key: PDFBOX-1933
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1933
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Parsing
> Affects Versions: 1.8.4
> Environment: Apache Tomcat 7, NetBeans 7.4, Windows 8.1
> Reporter: Adam Joel Richards
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: file-splitting,, fix, jsp,, minor
>
> I wrote a class to split large PDF files into segments, using NetBeans. When
> I run it as a local project, it works perfectly. It uses PDFParser to read
> the file input stream and output the document, so I can strip annotations and
> other stuff out and upload it to my database. The code is as follows:
> PDFParser pdfParser = new PDFParser( inputStream );
> pdfParser.parse();
> return pdfParser.getDocument();
> The PDFParser works when I run it as a standalone Java package. As soon as I
> embed it in a JSP, it loops forever. I get no error messages of any kind,
> but I can see that my Java processes are increasing in size, and that the
> file I'm working on (the original PDF) is locked by the OS. I have to shut
> down Java altogether to delete or rename it.
> I have no idea what the difference is when it is when it is run by a JSP
> calling the class file. If there is a simple solution and this is a repeat
> of the old infinite loop bug, could someone point me in the right direction?
> I have scoured the net looking for solutions, but I've had no luck.
