It sounds like the default cron expressions are the culprit then. I imagine it was tested on the amount of repos and with the amount of artifacts that a big company might have and thus it causes problems.
Could you give me the cron expression that you are using for repo scans and database updates? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Eric Miles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 22, 2008 1:07 PM To: archiva-users@maven.apache.org Subject: RE: Archiva crashes after a couple of days I too had this same issue. Make sure your cron syntax is correct as it is not standard unix cron syntax. The first entry is a second number, not minutes. I initially (and accidentally) setup our cron jobs to run at a crazy pace, I think every second. I asked the mailing list if there was a way to clear these queue of events so I could let the app run its course, but received no answers. i eventually had to reinstall fresh to get around it but all works great now. FYI, we're on RHEL 4 update 4 as well. Eric On Fri, 2008-02-22 at 13:01 -0800, Jason Chaffee wrote: > I am running on RedHat Enterprise 4 update 4.
