Re: [Fwd: Re: JobInvoker crashes while reading serviceengine.xml]
Hi Florin, Could you please explain the steps how to achieve stop reading the xml file every time the configuration is needed and instead store them within the JobInvoker upon creation. .. or perhaps up to this time you have got a better solution? I would appreciate if you could share it. Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://ofbiz.135035.n4.nabble.com/Fwd-Re-JobInvoker-crashes-while-reading-serviceengine-xml-tp1572137p4550312.html Sent from the OFBiz - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Re: [Fwd: Re: JobInvoker crashes while reading serviceengine.xml]
Thanks, very good idea. I did this today and it seems better I ask myself if there are other XML files which are read so frequent?!

Re: JobInvoker crashes while reading serviceengine.xml
Hello David, I am sorry, but your assumption with development settings instead of production settings is wrong. I read many times that document regarding production settings. I fight for more than 2 months with an unstable production system so I did most of the things found wherever. cache.properties has even comments inside which suggest the difference between the 2 modes. Any kind of help would be kindly appreciated. Maybe a list of the XMLs (more not one) which are parsed very often and which actually could be parsed only once for the whole live (hope longer) of a running instance. regards, florin On Sat, Feb 27, 2010 at 10:03 PM, David E Jones d...@me.com wrote: As for performance... it sounds like you have not turned off the cache clear settings (everything clears every 10 seconds by default for development purposes). I recommend following the Production Setup Guide and commenting out the cache timeouts in the cache.properties file. I hate to say it, but it's amazing how often people deploy OFBiz without even reading the docs, and little things like this are expected. I've seen large-scale sites go into product and get hammered because they didn't do this 5 minute change, and then they think I'm some sort of miracle worker when I point to the problem. Docs are there for a reason! The Business and Production Setup Guides are absolutely vital and no one should do anything with OFBiz before reading them. Follow the doc links from the ofbiz home page (ofbiz.apache.org) and you'll find they are prominently featured... and for a reason! -David On Feb 27, 2010, at 10:50 AM, Florin Popa wrote: Hello Adrian, I expected such an answer. Actually I had another emails thread on that topic of update to the latest version. But such a thing is not possible because we developed on top of that version for almost 2 years by now. We hardly succeeded to update connection pooling to DBCP but a full update is impossible - because of the missing compatibilities newer version did not really consider that older ones might already be used in production. Overall, I started to have a bad feeling about entire framework... the performance itself is really bad.. Maybe next days we will have one more attempt to make a bit cleaning on the source code (default one from ofbiz) so that performance could be improved. I noticed for example very very often reading of several configuration XML files which really does not make sense... because no one could change them at runtime... as well as I am not sure about the entire caching mechanism... regards, Florin Florin, That revision is prior to Release 9.04 - so I don't know if you will find much support for it. I will look into it if I find time.

Again, many thanks for the clue. If time will be enough we can also have a look for the reason.. I am not sure how deep inside the code should it be...

Hello all, I think I tried before to ask that question, but I would retry because it becomes a critical issue in production. The Ofbiz instance runs fine for several ours and unexpectedly I can see these lines below in the log file. As soon as it starts with those exceptions, I need to restart the instance because nothing works further.

Re: JobInvoker crashes while reading serviceengine.xml
Florin, The next time you have that problem, try clearing the resource.ResourceLoaders cache and see if the problem goes away. -Adrian Florin Popa wrote: Hello all, I think I tried before to ask that question, but I would retry because it becomes a critical issue in production.
