Re: tomcat hangging problem

I think like this. A strange thing I noticed yesterday: on hangging machines, running with -Xms100m -Xmx200m seems to hide problem (I guess hang would occur later, but a less-than-10-minutes process ran all night long (and was running till somebody (!$*รน#@) reboot)). Aha. I would bet something is wrong in the GC or memory allocator. Are you running the _latest_ version of the VM ? Can you file a bug on this ? I do think so (but if you tried someday to find something in IBM website, you know how it is hard to find something!): ./java -fullversion java full version J2RE 1.3.0 IBM build ca130-20010615 where do you expect me to file that bug? ibm? wow! I did open a call, but via our internal helpdesk, and then via somebody @ibm.com who does not know anything about java and aix :-( well, it seems problem has reached more concerned persons, but I really don't know who :} Does it happen with any servlet ( say HelloWorld ) or only with your application ? Can you create a simple servlet ( that eventually does some allocation - in case the bug is in the GC ), and see if it can reproduce the problem ? well, I did write a sample that shows problem (I can tell more or send code), but after a couple of hours running: I could make it alloc much more when looping... hope this could make it hang faster. -- Joseph This message and any attachments (the message) is intended solely for the addressees and is confidential.

tomcat hangging problem
Hello... Here is the description of current problem I try to solve... I have already mailed to tomcat-user, but since nobody has a beginning of an answer, and since we can't go on production launch anymore, I try here. environment: - AIX 4.3.3 SMP, - JRE 1.2.2 (several builds), then 1.3.0 - tomcat 3.2.1, 3.2.3 then 3.3.b2 (sorry, did not try 3.3.rc1 yet!) problem is: tomcat hangs after some time (may be 3 minutes or some hours). I mean tomcat is running (ps shows it), but no answer is received to requests when tomcat hangs (telnetting it with a http get request results in no response). Even a kill -3 does nothing. Strangely, problem occurs only on _some_ of AIX 4.3.3 machines where I run tomcat. Some machines, with same jre/tomcat/code, run with no problem (well, maybe problem would occur after a much longer time, I don't really know). And I did not met that on winNT4 (with a Sun jdk: I got to try with an ibm jvm). Note that I got a javacore twice, if somebody can interpret it... I wrote a simple servlet which shows tomcat hangging, if that can help: a singleton deals with doGet: first time it launches 'n' threads, each of them will http-request same singleton every 't' seconds and print result to stdout. other request to singleton only prints text/plain string to response's writer.
