Paul Sabatino commented on DERBY-151:
-------------------------------------
I thought I'd add a little more clarification to this. This error seems to only
come up when the interrupt flag is set on a thread that is doing a commit that
which causes a page to be written to disk. I figured this out by modifying the
d151.java to take pageSize as an argument and to count how many iterations of
insert and interrupt it took to fail. I then varied the pageSize and noted that
the number of iterations before failure was proportional to the pageSize. So my
guess was that the page was being written somewhere under the covers and
causing this error.
I've attached my test program. I hope this helps resolve this issue.

> Key: DERBY-151
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-151
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Store
> Affects Versions: 10.0.2.1
> Environment: Linux kernel 2.4.21-243-athlon (SuSE 9.0)
> Reporter: Barnet Wagman
> Attachments: d151.java, derby.log, Derby151Test.java
>
>
> I've encountered what appears to be a bug related to threading. After an
> INSERT operation, if the invoking thread terminates too quickly, Derby throws
> an XSDG.
> The bug is a bit difficult to isolate but it occurs consistently in the
> following situation (with a particular database and an operation of a
> particular size):
> Derby is running in embedded mode with autocommit on.
> The application performs an INPUT operation from a thread that is not the
> main thread. The INPUT is issued using a PreparedStatement. The INPUT adds
> ~ 256 records of six fields each. (Note that INSERTs of this size seem to
> work fine in other contexts.)
>
> The preparedStatement.executeUpdate() seems to excute successfully; at least
> it returns without throwing an exception.
> The thread that invoked the INPUT operation then terminates (but NOT the
> application). The next INPUT operation then results in an
> "ERROR XSDG1: Page Page(7,Container(0, 1344)) could not be written to disk,
> please check if disk is full."
> The disk is definitely not full.
> HOWEVER, if I put the calling thread to sleep for a second before it exits,
> the problem does not occur.
> I'm not quite sure what to make of this. I was under the impression that
> most of Derby's activity occurs in the application's threads. Could Derby be
> creating a child thread from in the application thread, which dies when the
> parent thread terminates?
> Thanks
