[Geoserver-users] Geoserver stops responding

Hello list,

After working with geoserver a couple of hours its seems to stop
responding. I can't connect to the admin tool and any services (wms) its
serving stop working. I have to go in and restart the service to resolve
the issue. Any ideas what's going on?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Not unless you provide us with more information. Which GS version and Java version are you using? What kind of requests did GeoServer receive
during the two hours? What datastores are you using?
And more importantly, do you see any error in the log file? ($GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR/logs/geoserver.org)
If so, can you report the full stack traces you may find?

Cheers
Andrea

Yes of course, here is the info requested:

Geoserver version 1.6.4
Java version: 1.6.0

Datastore is PostGIS on PostgreSQL 8.3

Here is what the geoserver.log output was at the time it went down, no
errors were thrown only warnings:

What happens with the admin tool is a "page not found error" comes up in
the browser, and the wms services being used in openlayers don't draw
and seem to wait for the server infinitely.

Thanks for the response.

Ugh, there is not a single error there. Are you sure GeoServer is still
up? On some linux distributions map rendering can
occasionally segfault, but in that case the whole web container
goes down so it becomes pretty evident cause the process dies immediately.

It's all running on Windows Server 2003 sp 2

To get it to work again I manually restarted the service. It works fine
now after the restart.
