Davide, Thanks for the responseā€¦I have also fired the attached code from outside a rule, and it works perfectly (I created a hidden test menu option that allows me to call runNeedleChestDecompressionReport()). In fact, every other instance of using ZipUtil works fine. And the place where the

I agree with Davide. Google with java.util.zip.Deflater native method init returns several interesting hits, some of which indicate that it is possible to run into an OOME, e.g., when heap and perm space doesn't leave enough room for native memory allocation. When this problem became manifest:

Wolfgang, Here's my dilemma...there is no exception thrown! I wouldn't even be here asking the question if I was getting an OOME...my problem is that the rule hangs, and from that point on, the entire rules engine is hung, even though other processing continues on that jboss node. Note that I'm

Mattias (and Esteban)... Well.you guys gave me the solution to the problem, but in a wildly indirect way. I downloaded the source for zip4j, added a bunch of logging so I could figure out where the code was hanging, went to replace the existing library and.hmmm, where the heck IS the

From your description, it does not seem a rule engine issue... Have you tried reproducing the problem outside the rule engine? I.e. invoking the ZipUtil in a more traditional context? And does it get stuck with ANY bytearray or just with that one particular input? -- View this message in
