This is my java config: http://ir.sun.ac.za/wiki/index.php/Prepare_Ubuntu#Step_5.2:_Configure_Tomcat_5.5
No problems so far.

At MIT, we've done some adjusting of our memory configuration but have still seen this occurring on a regular basis (from once every other day to multiple times in one day). We currently have a band-aid in place in the form of our monitoring system detecting the state and restarting Tomcat to clear the issue, but are still looking for the root cause.

Could anyone seeing this issue list how they have their XMLUI webapp configured in Tomcat? There are many possible causes for a white-screen in Tomcat (even outside of DSpace installations), one of which is the absence of a ROOT webapp (though this condition is typically permanent until resolved, but I'm looking for strange configuration problems, so...). Here is how we have our Tomcat configured:

- No ROOT directory in the tomcat/webapps directory
- tomcat/conf/server.xml configured with the following entry:
<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="dspace.mit.edu <http://dspace.mit.edu>"> <Host name="dspace.mit.edu <http://dspace.mit.edu>" appBase="/path/to/dspace.mit.edu/deploy/location/webapps"
              unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
              xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">

I am wondering if doing things in this way, or a particular configuration related to it, is causing something to hang up occasionally. We are running Tomcat 6.0.20 through Apache2 via mod_jk.


The more details from the community on this one, the better. It's a mysterious one. Thanks everyone!

Phil Fenstermacher commented on DS-605:
---------------------------------------

I was having the same issue and found that a different startup script for Tomcat fixed the problem. The script that would cause the behavior used the arguments Xss and Xmn, however after they were removed things started behaving correctly.

The presence of the arguments I'm sure is not what caused Tomcat to crash but rather improper values set within those arguments. If I find better values to use I'll be sure to post them.

Blank screen on XMLUI Dspace 1.6.0

The interface of Dspce XMLUI shows a blank screen and I need to reboot Tomcat. JSPUI The interface is not affected by the issue. It happens sporadically. I'm using version 1.6.0 of DSpace. I use a theme based on the theme "Reference" which comes in DSpace.
