Re: Problems with frequent Nifi core dumping

Hello Cheryl

Nope - not something that I've seen.  But could you try doing what it
shows in that log

"Failed to write core dump. Core dumps have been disabled. To enable
core dumping, try "ulimit -c unlimited" before starting Java again"

There *might* be some useful data in the core dump itself.

Thanks
Joe

Problems with frequent Nifi core dumping

[Cheryl Jennings]

Hi Everyone,

I'm running Nifi 0.7.0 and I have started to see problems where nifi will
crash repeatedly and often won't be stable until I've restarted the
machine.  Here's a relevant part from nifi-bootstrap.log:

2016-11-15 14:55:54,272 INFO [NiFi logging handler]
org.apache.nifi.StdOut # A fatal error has been detected by the Java

Has anyone seen something like this before?
