Please read: http://linux-mm.org/OOM_Killer Reading this indicates that your process is a very good candidate for killing: 1. It hasn't been running very long (because it keeps getting killed) 2. It spawns a lot of child processes (threads to handle incoming requests) 3. It uses a lot of memory (how big is your heap?) | I can't see anything in /var/log/messages nor catalina.out indeed. That's because the process DIES. Java isn't shutting itself down. The kernel is murdering the process and covering its mouth so it can't scream as it goes down. Try setting /proc/<pid>/oom_adj to -17 as the article suggests and see if a different process gets killed instead. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkgQt2EACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PB34QCgnhvQO7tQu2Q4rYdfV6W9jMQS hGAAoLB8Tv84WiF8uwZdSV4y2iMmg+v4 =uhhy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
