Tracy, The JSP does a call to a method in our app -- which if it runs, that means the app is up and available -- the method does a simple query against the DB and then returns a status of OK if the method runs through just fine.
In our example from this weekend -- the health.jsp (which is the one that does this check) ran and returned a good result, but the main index.jspreturned the 500 error with the OutOfMemory exception. So that is what is confusing here. thanks, Kim :-) On 8/20/07, Nelson, Tracy M. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > How is your JSP checking your application?
