asked on

my webapp is crashing the JVM intermittently

Hello,
I have just pushed a new version of my web app to my production boxes .
which is apache-tomcat-5.5.15 with apache and fedora core 4

I am running this same app one 3 different boxes

on two of them it has crashed the JVM. The only reason i say this, is
because it probably rules out hardware

1 box crashes every 2 or 3 days and the other 1 once in the last week

I will give you a part of the log file of the crash.

if there is more that i can provide please let me know.

Any help would be really appreciated:

thannks
Paries,
  I'm not a linux administrator myself. May be the below link will help you in verifying and setting  the available memory that should be committed for your web applications (You need to have at least 1024M with a factor of safety)
http://tldp.org/LDP/sag/html/sag.html

I would also suggest you to post a query on the linux administration group, where someone with a hands on experience can provide a better guidance.
regards
Sachin
