Hi Folks, A patch is available on this issue. Has anyone who was experiencing the original problem tried out the latest trunk with this patch applied? Does this patch resolve your issue? Thanks, Chris > Once Nutch logs a SEVERE log item, Nutch fails forevermore > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-258 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-258 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: Bug > Components: fetcher > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Environment: All > Reporter: Scott Ganyo > Assigned To: Chris A. Mattmann > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.9.0 > > Attachments: dumbfix.patch, NUTCH-258.Mattmann.060906.patch.txt, > NUTCH-258.Mattmann.080406.patch.txt > > > Once a SEVERE log item is written, Nutch shuts down any fetching forevermore. > This is from the run() method in Fetcher.java: > public void run() { > synchronized (Fetcher.this) {activeThreads++;} // count threads > > try { > UTF8 key = new UTF8(); > CrawlDatum datum = new CrawlDatum(); > > while (true) { > if (LogFormatter.hasLoggedSevere()) // something bad happened > break; // exit > > Notice the last 2 lines. This will prevent Nutch from ever Fetching again > once this is hit as LogFormatter is storing this data as a static. > (Also note that "LogFormatter.hasLoggedSevere()" is also checked in > org.apache.nutch.net.URLFilterChecker and will disable this class as well.) > This must be fixed or Nutch cannot be run as any kind of long-running > service. Furthermore, I believe it is a poor decision to rely on a logging > event to determine the state of the application - this could have any number > of side-effects that would be extremely difficult to track down.
