Hi everybody on the list! We observed a strange tomcat behavior (tomcat 4.1.24) while running a servlet: Everything works fine some days or even weeks. Suddenly (and at random time) tomcat throws the following exceptions:
2003-10-08 11:44:48 CoyoteAdapter An exception or error occurred in the container during the request processing java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:164) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardPipeline$StandardPipelineValveContext.invokeNext(StandardPipeline.java:643) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardPipeline.invoke(StandardPipeline.java:480) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.invoke(ContainerBase.java:995) at org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:223) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:594) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.processConnection(Http11Protocol.java:392) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:565) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:619) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) This exception occurs some times. Suddenly tomcat throws another exception: 2003-10-08 11:46:44 CoyoteAdapter An exception or error occurred in the container during the request processing java.lang.NullPointerException at java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:509) at org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.ByteChunk.indexOf(ByteChunk.java:669) at org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteAdapter.normalize(CoyoteAdapter.java:578) at org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteAdapter.postParseRequest(CoyoteAdapter.java:280) at org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:221) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:594) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.processConnection(Http11Protocol.java:392) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:565) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:619) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) Note that there are no user defined classes in the stacktrace. What's the reason of this behavior?
