We ran our web app on Tomcat 4 on an AIX 5.3 box Java 5_64 with no issues for 2 years.
We recently upgraded to Tomcat 6 and we are seeing some unusual problems. 1) After working for 2-3 days with heavy load One of our functions errors with java.sql.SQLException: java.io.IOException: java.net.SocketException: There is no process to read data written to a pipe. 2) Jsp classes that were working properly start throwing Exceptions like ClassCastException Resolution is only by clearing cache and re-starting. We are thinking maybe the OS needs and upgrade and we need to be on Java 1.6 Would appreciate if anyone else had similar experience - what was resolution.
