Hello,
When stopping or undeploying my struts 2 web app in Tomcat (7.0.23) I get several severe warnings from tomcat: SEVERE: The web application [/myapp] created a ThreadLocal with key of type [com.opensymphony.xwork2.inject.ContainerImpl$10] (value [com.opensymphony.xwork2.inject.ContainerImpl$10@1376afa]) and a value of type [java.lang.Object[]] (value [[Ljava.lang.Object;@15075f9]) but failed to remove it when the web application was stopped. Threads are going to be renewed over time to try and avoid a probable memory leak. I've hunted all over the web and found this error repeated in several places, but I haven't yet found a solution. I then found some posts that lead me to believe this was a problem in the xwork libs but that it had been resolved in the latest version: http://jira.opensymphony.com/browse/XW-560 I also found a reference suggesting this could be a problem with using the deprecated FilterDispatcher rather than a StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-2167 I was originally using Struts 2.1.8.1 and upgraded to the latest (2.3.1.2) which didn't solve the problem, nor did switching back and forth between the FilterDispatcher and StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter (the following is from my web.xml): <filter> <filter-name>action2</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>httpResponseFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>action2</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> I also tried an IntrospectorCleanupListener as a shot in the dark but to no avail. If I comment out the StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter and deploy/stop the web app, the severe warnings regarding ThreadLocal's go away (though obviously my web app no longer works). At this point I'm not sure what else to try - is there some additional cleanup I can perform via a ContextLoaderListener or otherwise on struts to shut it down properly when the web app is stopped? Or are there still bugs in struts 2/xwork causing this issue that haven't been resolved? Any suggestions or help much appreciated.
