A list of symptoms and their possible resolution.
Resin stops responding
Resin keeps restarting
No line numbers in exception stack traces
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError exception, application runs out of memory
An OutOfMemoryError exception is usually an indication that heap memory is being used up. Often this is from application code keeping references to objects that are no longer needed, and the garbage collector does not free them. A heap dump can help determine which code and which kinds of objects are being held. If the heap dump or other monitoring tools reveal that the server and your appliciation(s) actually are not running out of heap memory then an OutOfMemoryError indicates that then the JVM is running out of virtual memory, i.e. an underlying malloc() call is failing.
Often this situation is indicated by using OS tools to show memory usage, the
JVM itself indicates it has heap memory but the OS tool shows that the process
is using a very large amount of memory. On Windows the task manager is used, on Unix The only non-heap allocations by the JVM (and therefore Resin and your application) are the following:
After a while the server starts to go very slow
CPU spikes, excessive CPU usage
Sessions become null, losing sessionDebug loggingA first step is to enable debug logging. In particular the headers submitted by the browser for a request can reveal the state of the JSESSIONID for a client, and logging will also show when Resin recognizes, creates, and/or invalidates a session. Resin configuration for sessionsAnother possiblity is that the session-max setting is too low, and you are getting more users establishing sessions than you have configured Resin for. Yet another possibility is that the session is timing out, you can use the session-timeout tag to configure this. <web-app id='/'> ... <session-config> <!-- timeout after 120 minutes --> <session-timeout>120</session-timeout> <!-- up to 4096 sessions at once --> <session-max>4096</session-max> </session-config> ... </web-app> Application reloadingWhenever a java source file, web.xml, or resin.conf changes then Resin will restart the application. If this happens, your current sessions will be lost unless you have configured a persistent session store. Browser cookie limitationsSome users have reported that if their application uses a lot of cookies, the browser will start to discard older cookies to make room for the new. This may result in the browser discarding the cookie that Resin is using to keep track of the session. Internet Explorer users are particularily prone to encountering this problem. If your application uses a lot of cookies, the best solution is to reduce the number of cookies and size of cookie data. Resin uses a single cookie with a relatively small amount of data for tracking the session id of the user. Information that the application stores in cookies can be stored in the HttpSession object instead. As a last resort, you may need to configure Resin to always use URL rewriting by setting enable-cookies to false. However URL rewriting is not recommended because of security issues, the high probabilty that the application is missing calls to cause the rewriting on some pages, and because of the effect that rewriting has on the url. <web-app id='/'> ... <session-config> <enable-cookies>false</enable-cookies> <enable-url-rewriting>true</enable-url-rewriting> </session-config> ... </web-app> Problems with cookie domainsYou may also lose your sessions if your cookie domains are incompatible. For example, if you have one server that uses cookie domain "hogwarts.com" and another that uses "qa.hogwarts.com", the cookie in the browser for "hogwarts.com" will interfere with sessions on "qa.hogwarts.com". The solution is to change the cookie domain "hogwarts.com" to "www.hogwarts.com". You set the cookie domain in session-config. (Thanks Laura for providing this) Conflicting cookie namesIf you are using Resin and another application server (such as Tomcat), you may encounter a conflict because both of them are using the same cookie name (usually JSESSIONID) for the session tracking cookie. Resin provides session-cookie and ssl-session-cookie to let you change the name of the cookie that Resin uses. Change the name of the cookie used for session tracking <cluster> ... <session-cookie>RJESSESSIONID</session-cookie> URL rewritingIf you forget to rewrite a URL, a user who requires rewriting will lose their session as soon as they follow that URL. Resin establishes an association between a session and a user's browser by establishing a unique id that is returned back with each new request. This is accomplished in one of two ways: using cookies or URL rewriting. Resin first attempts to track the session of a user by sending the user's browser a cookie containing the unique session id. Sometimes Resin cannot establish a cookie, either because the user has disabled cookies in their browser or because the browser does not support them (as is the case with some HDML and WML browsers). If the cookie cannot be established then something called URL rewriting is used. In this case, Resin rewrites every URL that it submits to the user so that it contains a parameter named . Then for each incoming request the first thing it does is look for this parameter, and if it is available it knows a session has been established and it removes the parameter and uses it to find the users session object.Rewriting requires the cooperation of the developer. The developer must encode every URL reference so that Resin has an opportunity to put in the parameter.URL rewriting using JSTL <%@ taglib prefix='c' uri='http://java.sun.com/jstl/core' %> Time to go <a href="<c:url value='home.jsp'/>">Home</a>! URL rewriting using Java scriptlet <% String homeUrl = response.encodeURL("home.jsp"); %> <%-- the presentation --%> Time to go <a href="<%= homeUrl %>">Home</a>! Specification version 1.3 of package javax.servlet, J2EE Specification, version 1.3 is not compatible with ResinUnsupported major.minor version 48.0This error usually happens when a conflicting jar is found, see Clean up the classpath If the classpath is completely cleaned up, as suggested in the link, then a jar or some other component of a jdk installation or older Resin installation is coming from somewhere else. There may be a problem with some jar in your JAVA_HOME tree, if you have added anything there. There may be a conflicting jar in WEB-INF/lib/ of your webapp. Another possibility is that you have not set JAVA_HOME, or if you have then some component of a conflicting jdk installation (javac for example, or the java executable itself) is getting used. If on windows, check for stray copies of java.exe outside of JAVA_HOME, for example in C:/WINDOWS/java.exe or anywhere else in your PATH. Problems reading POST dataA first step is to enable debug logging. Debug logging will show the request coming into to Resin, and provide some information on how Resin is dealing with the post. It is important to make sure the encoding is set properly before reading POST parameters. The browser will always send back parameters in the same encoding as the output page. Since the request doesn't include the encoding (an oversight in the HTTP spec), the application code needs to make sure the encoding matches. So the first thing to do is to determine that encoding your form page has when it is sent to the browser. Your application should always specify that. Having established that, you will know what encoding the browser is going to use for the POST. (utf-8 is a natural choice for encoding here, I'm not sure why you would use anything else). Then before reading the POST parameters make sure you set the encoding to match. You can call request.setCharacterEncoding(encoding) to do that. Enable debug loggingResin provides a number of diagnostic messages using the JDK logging facility. Full debug logging is enabled with an empty name (meaning match all names) and a level of 'all'. Since this will produce many messages, it is useful to put the messages in a a seperate file. Full debug logging of the server and all applicationsThe following configuration creates a debug log for each day, and when a problem occurs the debug log is used to help find out what the problem is. Since the log entry is in , the log will capture messages from the server itself and all applications. The resulting log messages are found in the file . Full debug logging of the server to $RESIN_HOME/log/debug.log <!-- resin.conf --> <resin> <log name="" path="log/debug.log" timestamp="[%H:%M:%S.%s] {%{thread}} "/> <logger name="" level="finer"/> </resin> More specific areas can be targetted with appropriate values for
Full debug logging of one web applicationOften you can narrow down the logging requirements to a single web application. The log entry can be placed in and only log messages from that web application will go to the log file.The following configuration creates a debug log for each day in .Full debug logging of one application to <web-app-root>/WEB-INF/work/debug.log <!-- <web-app-root>/WEB-INF/web.xml --> <web-app> ... <log name="" path="WEB-INF/work/debug.log" timestamp="[%H:%M:%S.%s] {%{thread}} "/> <logger name="" level="finer"/> ... </web-app> Thread dumpIf an application seems stuck, or is running out of resources, a thread dump will reveal the state of the server. Java's thread dumps are a vital tool for server debugging. Because servlets are intrinsically multithreaded, it is very possible to create deadlocks without realizing it, or to have runaway threads that consume resources and cause OutOfMemory exceptions. That's especially true when you start adding third-party software like databases, EJB, and Corba ORBs.

Thread dump by sending a signalOn Windows, ctrl-break may produce a thread dump. On Unix, "kill -QUIT" will produce a thread dump. On the Linux IBM JDKs, you'll need to signal one of the child processes. On the Linux Sun JDK, you'll need to kill the grandparent process of most of the threads: unix> ps -ef | grep java ferg 14243 10792 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:00 sh -c /usr/java/bin/java ferg 14244 14243 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:00 java -Dres ferg 14253 14244 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:01 java -Dres ferg 14254 14253 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:00 java -Dres ferg 14255 14253 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:00 java -Dres ferg 14256 14253 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:00 java -Dres ferg 14257 14253 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:00 java -Dres ferg 14258 14253 0 Jan13 pts/0 00:00:00 java -Dres unix> kill -QUIT 14244 The Solaris 1.3 JDK has a single process, so it's easy. The Solaris 1.2 JDK has an extra quirk. You need to run Resin in the foreground (i.e. not using "start".) Then you'll need to answer some questions on the console. Thread dump if signalling doesn't workYou get a thread dump without signalling the process by starting the JVM with some extra arguments to allow a debugger to attach. You can then attach with the debugger at any time to get a thread dump. This technique works on all operating systems. Here are some step by step instructions:
Unix users (and Cygwin users on Windows) will recognize the opportunity to make a script: resin-thread-dump.sh #!/bin/sh echo -e "suspend\nwhere all\nresume\nquit" | $JAVA_HOME/bin/jdb -connect \ com.sun.jdi.SocketAttach:hostname=localhost,port=5432 Although no rigorous benchmarking has been done, there appears to be little overhead or performance penalties involved in having the JVM start with the options that allow a debugger to attach. Understanding the thread dumpIn any case, you'll eventually get a trace that looks something like the following (each JDK is slightly different): Full thread dump: "tcpConnection-8080-2" daemon waiting on monitor [0xbddff000..0xbddff8c4] at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) at com.caucho.server.TcpServer.accept(TcpServer.java:525) at com.caucho.server.TcpConnection.accept(TcpConnection.java:190) at com.caucho.server.TcpConnection.run(TcpConnection.java:136) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) "tcpConnection-8080-1" daemon waiting on monitor [0xbdfff000..0xbdfff8c4] at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) at com.caucho.server.TcpServer.accept(TcpServer.java:525) at com.caucho.server.TcpConnection.accept(TcpConnection.java:190) at com.caucho.server.TcpConnection.run(TcpConnection.java:136) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) "tcpConnection-8080-0" daemon waiting on monitor [0xbe1ff000..0xbe1ff8c4] at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) at com.caucho.server.TcpServer.accept(TcpServer.java:525) at com.caucho.server.TcpConnection.accept(TcpConnection.java:190) at com.caucho.server.TcpConnection.run(TcpConnection.java:136) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) "tcp-accept-8080" runnable [0xbe7ff000..0xbe7ff8c4] at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketAccept(Native Method) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.accept(PlainSocketImpl.java:413) at java.net.ServerSocket.implAccept(ServerSocket.java:243) at java.net.ServerSocket.accept(ServerSocket.java:222) at com.caucho.server.TcpServer.run(TcpServer.java:415) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) "resin-cron" daemon waiting on monitor [0xbe9ff000..0xbe9ff8c4] at java.lang.Thread.sleep(Native Method) at com.caucho.util.Cron$CronThread.run(Cron.java:195) "resin-alarm" daemon waiting on monitor [0xbebff000..0xbebff8c4] at java.lang.Thread.sleep(Native Method) at com.caucho.util.Alarm$AlarmThread.run(Alarm.java:268) "Signal Dispatcher" runnable [0..0] "Finalizer" daemon waiting on monitor [0xbf3ff000..0xbf3ff8c4] at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) at java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue.remove(ReferenceQueue.java:108) at java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue.remove(ReferenceQueue.java:123) at java.lang.ref.Finalizer$FinalizerThread.run(Finalizer.java:162) "Reference Handler" daemon waiting on monitor [0xbf5ff000..0xbf5ff8c4] at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) at java.lang.Object.wait(Object.java:420) at java.lang.ref.Reference$ReferenceHandler.run(Reference.java:110) "main" waiting on monitor [0xbfffd000..0xbfffd210] at java.lang.Thread.sleep(Native Method) at com.caucho.server.http.ResinServer.waitForExit(ResinServer.java:674) at com.caucho.server.http.ResinServer.main(ResinServer.java:821) at com.caucho.server.http.HttpServer.main(HttpServer.java:95) Each thread is named. Here are some of the common names:
There should be one tcp-accept-xxx thread for each <http> and <srun> that Resin's listening for. The tcp-accept-xxx thread should almost always be in socketAccept. There should be several tcpConnection-xxx-n threads. Each of these is the servlet thread. On a busy server, these can appear anywhere in your code. If several appear in one location, you've likely got some sort of deadlock or at least a slow lock. Idle threads are either in tcpAccept or httpRequest or runnerRequest (for keepalive threads.) For deadlocks, you'll want to look at the "waiting on monitor" threads and any case where lots of threads are stuck at the same location. Out of Memory and Garbage CollectionMost memory problems are due to memory leaks in the application program. For example, a cache or a vector that fills up with stale data, or a singleton or static variable which doesn't properly detect a web-app reload. Some more exotic memory issues relate to running out of heap memory or virtual memory when using a large number of threads (> 256). The steps to track down a memory problem are:
-verbosegc-verbosegc is a debugging output from the JVM. It's very convenient for checking basic memory usage and garbage collection time. It's a good idea to use -verbosegc for any production system. When starting Resin, you'll use -J-verbosegc. The specific output depends on the JVM, and looks something like the following: -verbosegc output [GC 9176K->8647K(9768K), 0.0014790 secs] [GC 9287K->8668K(9768K), 0.0011120 secs] [GC 9308K->8668K(9768K), 0.0007810 secs] The "(9768K)" is the most important number, showing that the maximum allocated heap is about 10 meg. The other numbers show the actual heap used before and after garbage collection. Check memory usage with a heap dumpIf an application gobbles up memory until it throws an OutOfMemory exception, or seems to be spending an excessive amount of time doing garbage collection, a heap dump can help track down the source of the problem. What you really need to do is get a good CPU and heap profile. The JDK has a simple one (but not very user-friendly), so you don't absolutely need to buy a profiler. An alternative for simple heap monitoring (garbage collection issues), are the jvmstat tools. It's a standard java argument, so "java -Xrunhprof:help" will tell you how to start it. For example, you could start Resin (unix or windows) as > httpd.sh -J-Xrunhprof:heap=sites,cpu=samples (On Unix, Resin's startup script has a -cpuprof-ascii argument that sets it for you automatically.) Run a load against it for a decent amount of time (you can even use something like Apache's "ab" for 10 minutes), and then stop the server nicely. i.e. you can't just kill it with ctrl-C, but you need to make it do a clean exit. That will dump a java.hprof.txt. Skip to the bottom to get the trace. Understanding java.hprof.txt heapAssuming you're being cheap, and using the JDK's heap profiling instead of buying a profiler, you'll need a bit of help interpreting it. The following is an example of a heap dump running Resin. Here's what you might see skipping down to the "SITES BEGIN" section. (I did mention this is the cheap way of doing things.) As with most profiling, you only want to pay attention to the top 20. Everything else is in the noise. Ignore it.

First, if any one class starts chewing up a large number in the "live objs" column, you'll need to take a look. That might be a memory leak. Second, if some class has a huge number in the "alloc'ed objs" column, you may be wasting lots of garbage collection time that could be easily solved with some caching. The [C in the class name means a character array. To see what that really means, you'll need to look at the stack trace (3271): TRACE 3271: java/lang/String.<init>(String.java:244) com/caucho/util/CharBuffer.close(CharBuffer.java:714) com/caucho/vfs/FilesystemPath.normalizePath(FilesystemPath.java:162) com/caucho/vfs/FilesystemPath.schemeWalk(FilesystemPath.java:127) That's part of Resin's VFS code. Maybe in the future it'll make sense to try to reduce that. You can get a longer trace using the "-prof-depth 10" argument to Resin. (Or the corresponding depth in -Xrunhprof.) That will often give more information. Understanding java.hprof.txt CPUThe CPU profiling is a little easier to read. On some JDK's you'll need to run it with the JIT disabled.

Run Resin with the additional argument Once the server has run under load for a while, or when problems start appearing, look in the gc.log file and search for "Full". They will happen fairly infrequently at first, and then towards the end of the file, they will become progressively more frequent until they are happening almost continuously (with little or no change in the size of the heap). Note that the "timestamp" in the first column is the number of seconds since the process started. Garbage collection logging will have a small imapct on performance but is invaluable in diagnosing garbe collection related problems. Possible reasons for excessive garbage collection are memory leaks and inadequate heap memory Clean up the classpathConflicts often arise with older or incompatible versions of classes. Starting Resin with an empty CLASSPATH environmental variable is a first step to eliminating these classes. Starting Resin with an empty CLASSPATH win> set CLASSPATH= win> bin/httpd.exe unix.sh> export CLASSPATH="" unix.sh> bin/httpd.sh If you have manually placed any jars in $RESIN_HOME/lib or you jdk directories, those are possible conflicts as well. If a new version of Resin s installed overtop of an older version of Resin (i.e. in the same directory), some old jars might be left. It is best to give each version it's own directory. If the RESIN_HOME environment variable is not set, Resin may be picking up an older version. You can start httpd with the -verbose option to see the CLASSPATH that is being used when Resin is started. Monitor the HTTP communicationTo monitor just the HTTP headers, the following debug logging can be enabled in $RESIN_HOME/resin.conf: debug logging for HTTP headers <resin xmlns="http://caucho.com/ns/resin"> ... <log name='com.caucho.server.http' level='finer' path='log/http.log'/> <log name='com.caucho.server.connection' level='finer' path='log/http.log'/> ... </resin> Intercepting and monitoring the raw data passed between a web browser and Resin can provide valuable insight. This raw data reveals the headers and content that are submitted by the browser, and the headers and content that are returned by Resin. The Apache Axis jar includes a utility
"tcpmon" that can be used to intercept and monitor the communication between a
browser and Resin. Using tcpmon, you specify a "listen port" and a "target
host" and a "target port". For example, if you usually have Resin running on
port 8080, you can start tcpmon with a "listen port" os 9090, and a target host
of localhost and a target port of 8080. Now you will use a url
Use an external compilerResin's default is to use the `internal' compiler because it is the most likely to be available. Sometimes the internal compiler will start to cause errors, causing exceptions or simply hanging and taking up a thread. The solution is to change the compiler to `javac' in resin.conf: Using the external javac java compiler <javac compiler="javac" args=""/> Jikes is another option for the compiler, as discussed in the documentation for javac. Increase stack size to avoid thread limitationsEach thread is allocated a stack, if the size of the stack is too large, then you may run out of memory when a higher number of threads is reached. Techniques to adress this are discussed in JVM Tuning. Use netstat to obtain an OS level view of current TCP/IP port usage
The unix$ netstat -anp win> netstat -an
The -a indicates that both listening (waiting for a connection) and
non-listening (active) sockets should be displayed. The -n causes the
display of port numbers (i.e. 80) instead of port names (i.e. http). The -p
causes the display of the process that is using the socket. Since the windows
Connection stateThe connection state is probably the most important information. The man page for netstat has a full description of each state that is displayed. "LISTEN" or "LISTENING" is an indication that there is a process waiting for connections on the socket. "TIME_WAIT" indicates that the socket is waiting after close to handle packets still in the network. After a connection is closed, the socket is kept open by the operating system for a short period of time. Even after the close is done, there may be some stray packets on the network that are destined for the connection. The idea of TIME_WAIT is that it keeps the socket open long enough to catch those stray packets, so that they don't get erronously delivered to a new connection opened on the same socket. Port usage
If Resin is indicating that it cannot bind to a port, it may be an
indication that another process is using the port. Since netstat produces a lot of information, it is helpful to filter the output to limit it to the port of interest. The following example is for port 80: netstat -anp unix$ netstat -anp | grep ":80" | less Specification version 1.3 of package javax.servlet, J2EE Specification, version 1.3 is not compatible with Resin Resin-3.0.x. Resin-3.0.x requires version 2.4.This error occurs when you have an old or conflicting jar containing the servlet api in your CLASSPATH. The solution is to clean up your classpath. class file has wrong version 48.0, should be 47.0This error occurs when you have an old or conflicting jar in your CLASSPATH. The solution is to clean up your classpath. If it is a Resin jar that is causing the error, you may have jars from a previous installation that are causing the error. This occasionally occurs when people try to copy a new installation over an old one, and due to write permissions etc. some of the older jars are not replaced. If the cleaning of the CLASSPATH (above) does not work, you may need to completely remove Resin from your system and re-install.
