BIRT Viewer leaving files open? [message #658471] Tue, 08 March 2011 11:15 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
We have a BIRT Viewer setup on tomcat 5.5, rhel 5, java 1.6.23.

When we generate a report, you can do this:

lsof | egrep java

etc.

For a "heavy" report, there are about 20 files generated, and less for "lighter" reports.

Eventually these will get GC'd. However, our servers get hit quite a lot, and typically we blow past the open file limits quickly. I upped the open file limit for now, but my question is this:

Should BIRT be leaving files open like this? As in, is this supposed to be happening or are we not cleaning up the reports correctly, making some sort of "end" call, etc.?

Logan,

Those files are supposed to be created. I would have expected them to
close though. Can you post your code?

Logan,

Sorry I did not read the title of the message. You are using the viewer
correct? Has it been modified? Can you open a bug to discuss with dev
team?

Just opened a bug.

Viewer is totally unmodified.

I could have lied about the GC as well. I thought I had witnessed the number of open files dwindle down as time went on, but I have been monitoring it most of the day today and one of the servers is sitting on 1900 open, deleted files. Its been at that level for the past hour or so.

Another server that doesn't get much action has been sitting at 444 for the better part of 6 hours.
