Susan: Yes, I have been having the same problem. I narrowed it down to what I think is a malicious harvester. I have blocked them temporarily and I think everything is OK (at least for the last 3 days).
I made some changes to my Tomcat and PostgreSQL config files as well to allocate more memory and Mark Diggory suggested using mod_cband to throttle back aggressive clients. Susan Thornton of NASA said that at her site this is caused by the filter-media program. If you'd like to see what my configs are set to, I'll be happy to share that. > Happy holidays all, > > Need some advice. > > My dspace app is crashing every other day, with a memory leak error > popping up in the Tomcat logs: > > Dec 21, 2008 3:17:46 AM > org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable run > SEVERE: Caught exception (java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space) > executing org.apache.jk.common.channelsocket$socketconnect...@7f84c9, > terminating thread > > I'm still running Dspace 1.4.2 on RedHat Linux 5.
