Hi all,

I looked in the Tomcat source code (6.0.13), and I really do not understand how I'm supposed to avoid the following error:

SEVERE: The servlet did not read all available bytes during the processing of the read event

What seems to be happening is this:

In my event method():
  while (request.getInputStream().available() > 0) {
     // read some data
  }
  // ***** NO MORE DATA AVAILABLE
  return;

A bit later in CoyoteAdapter (187):

               // *** SOME DATA ARRIVES SOMEWHERE HERE
               } else if (!error && read && request.getAvailable()) {
// If this was a read and not all bytes have been read, or if no data
                   // was read from the connector, then it is an error
                   error = true;
                   log.error(sm.getString("coyoteAdapter.read"));
               }
               return (!error);

I checked the source code, and CoyoteInputStream.available() and Request.getAvailable() both return exactly the same value, namely InputBuffer.available(). So it seems that between my return and this check new data arrived has arrived, causing failure. What's worse, my CometProcessor does not get notified (I don't know why) of the error, and the Poller goes in an infinite loop.

Does anybody know how I can solve this problem?

Hi,

I'm having a problem reading data in my Comet servlet.

In the BEGIN event I have the following loop:

   while (request.getInputStream().available() > 0) {
      // log that in read loop, log available()
      // read some data
   }
   // log that read loop is done, log available()
   return;

However, even though I keep reading until available() returns 0, I get a SEVERE error complaining I did not read all the available data, which can be seen from the following logs:

2007-06-26 14:37:08,427 DEBUG [http-8080-exec-4] com.sebster.myservlet.TomcatCometServlet - BEGIN event for request [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-06-26 14:37:08,427 DEBUG [http-8080-exec-4] com.sebster.myservlet.TomcatCometServlet - 127.0.0.1:60578 POST /mycometservlet 2007-06-26 14:37:08,432 DEBUG [http-8080-exec-4] com.sebster.myservlet.TomcatCometServlet - [24224039-a37e-40d0-a076-89d1df363390] read loop in BEGIN event, input stream data available: 1 2007-06-26 14:37:08,438 DEBUG [http-8080-exec-4] com.sebster.myservlet.TomcatCometServlet - [24224039-a37e-40d0-a076-89d1df363390] read loop done, input stream data available: 0
2007-06-26 2:37:08.MD org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter event
SEVERE: The servlet did not read all available bytes during the processing of the read event

After this, the poller goes into an infinite event handling busy loop.

I looked at what the poller was doing, and it seems to be setting the comet event into the END event type and trying to call the event method, however, it never arrives at my Comet processor's event method (it seems to call an event method on an error valve or though). I don't know what exactly happens, but I can debug more if necessary.

Does anybody know what the proper way to read ALL the data is, and not cause this exception to happen?

Sebastiaan
