Bundle startup order in virgin VWS [message #800093]

Hello.

When I start a virgin VWS, with the standard three artefacts in its pickup directory, what determines the order in which they are started?

I have two instances of VWS running, one of them starts up without fail every time, whereas the other one occasionally fails to do so because it is waiting for services and dependencies that are not yet available and eventually gives up after 180 seconds.

Any ideas?

TIA,
B.

Barbara, you can define that using a plan; see: http://www.eclipse.org/virgo/documentation/virgo-documentation-2.1.0.RELEASE/docs/virgo-programmer-guide/html/ch04s03.html

hth,

Miles

Thanks Miles.

This is a virgin installation though. Do I still require a plan? And if so, what is the order supposed to be? In the pickup dir there are a jar, a par and a plan.

Thanks,
B.

The three items in the pickup directory are the splash screen WAR file, the admin console plan, and the hosted repository PAR file. There are no dependencies between these three, so the startup order should not matter. The startup order is undefined - it depends on the vagaries of the file system lookup.

Is the VWS that is failing a virgin install? Is it running in a different environment to the other two (e.g. machine, OS, JRE)?

Yes, it is a virgin Virgo and yes, it is running on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 box, whereas the others are running on Windows 7.

Here's an excerpt of the log file when things fail:

Presumably it's a slow box or somehow the default JVM heap size is so small that a lot of GC activity is taking place and slowing down Virgo startup. See bug 366423 for more.
