i'm having an interesting production experience in which jackrabbit
has become unable to load the root node's state. it seems to have
entered this state after the machine it's running on was abruptly
power cycled. specifically, jackrabbit is receiving an EOFException
when deserializing the root node state read from derby (stack trace
below).
the exception is thrown at the same stage of deserialization every
time i try to start up the repository, which implies that corrupted
data somehow got stored into derby at some previous time. no errors
were logged by either jackrabbit or derby prior to the first
deserialization error.
i'm interested to hear any thoughts on how jackrabbit+derby could have
gotten into this state and what we might do to prevent this from
happening again.
thanks!
