Hello all,

we have a problem regarding RAP. Our web application freezes occasionally and we don't know how to determine the problem.
If we run the same application as an RCP application, we don't see any freezes at all.
The freezes occur at different locations and is only blocking the current session. All other sessions are running normally and if we reload the blocked session, it runs again without any problems (until the freeze happens again any time soon).
We already tried the release version of RAP 1.5 and milestone 1 of RAP 2.0, but both versions had the same problem.
We're running the web application with Tomcat 7.
We have a very big application, therefore it's not possible to post the application. We have no idea where the problem is located.

Can you give us a hint, how to trace and track down the problem?

Thank you very much in advance!

I would suggest running the application in debug and when the application "freezes", suspend all the threads, find the UI thread for the frozen session and see what method it is stuck in. Perhaps you have a dead lock somewhere. Alternately you can do a thread dump with a tool like visualvm or jconsole

Hi Chris,

thanks for your suggestion. It's really hard to reproduce the failure. In our eclipse we can't run the application so long that the problem occurs. I have started JMX Connection Support on the server to work with jvisualvm and get a thread dump.

Now I have made a dump. At least one session was frozen. Here are all UIThreads:

Hi Moritz,

at least this part of the thread dump looks completely sane. All
UIThreads are waiting in Display#sleep for the next request.

Could you describe the symptoms of this freeze? Does the browser send a
request that does not get a response? In this case it would also be
interesting to look at the particular request thread. It's not a
UIThread but one from the servlet container's thread pool. Could you
provide the entire thread dump?

Regards, Ralf

Hi Ralf,

here is the full dump. Yes I think that the browser send a request and wait for a request. When we use a loadbalancer between the browser and the tomcat, you can see a error log in the LB when you close the browser.
In the first post I have made a mistake: We use Tomcat 7.

Regards, Moritz

I can't spot anything suspicious. Again, could you describe the symptoms
of this freeze?

Regards, Ralf

If you work with the application, it stops working at some time. You can see the pointer with the hourglass. The browser still works. You can also klick to the buttons and see a click effect, but nothing happens. We can't see any similarities and we can't reproduce it so fast. I think that the browser wait for a request because we can see the message in the loadbalancer. I don't have the message at this time, when I get it, I will post it.
