It smells like a threading issue to me. Are the Action and the AxisServlet accessing the same resource, and if so are they doing it through a layer that implements caching?, my initialy thought is that somewhere a cached is being used for one, then returned to the other, then being cleared by one, and when it comes to being user by the other it's null or invalid.
Just a thought.... -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Amiel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 June 2007 01:34 To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: How can one servlet (ActionServlet) effect another servlet (AxisServlet)...? Recent issue is driving me batty. Suddenly started receiving exceptions in app server logs (tomcat a la jboss)... Servlet.service() for servlet AxisServlet threw exception java.lang.IllegalStateException org.apache.catalina.connector.ResponseFacade.setBufferSize(ResponseFacade.ja va:220) org.apache.axis.transport.http.AxisServlet.doPost(AxisServlet.java:610) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:717) org.apache.axis.transport.http.AxisServletBase.service(AxisServletBase.java: 327) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:810) After many many hours of research, appears that I get this exception if a specific struts action (one of several) executes at the same time as a SOAP call to the AxisServlet. It ends up causing the return of an empty dataset to the calling SOAP client (and giving me a bad headache to boot). Weird. The actions that appear to cause this aren't special in any way (not any different than other actions in my application), but I am obviously missing something. I have a suspicion that the struts actions that cause this are all chained events (one action calls another which leads to a JSP....but can't completely confirm). Any thoughts? How can the activities of one servlet effect another such as this? Yes...they are in the same war/ear......and they probably share some common classes..... For the record...Jboss 4./tomcat 5.5 Struts 1.3X and Axis 1.2 (although have tried 1.4...same results). Java 1.5 on FreeBSD 6.0. Any help would be appreciated. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
