[Geoserver-users] Memory leak with BouncyCastleProvider on GeoServer

Hi All,
   we are facing issue in our production servers. GEOServer is running on
tomcat6. It has a memory leak, due to this we need to restart this tomcat
instances everyday.

I have taken heap dump and analyzed, I can see 90% heap filled with
org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider class.

Please see attached s/s.
<http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/file/n5227581/BoucyCastleMemoryLeak.jpg&gt;

I have added the BouncyCastleProvider statistically: Added below line at the
bottom of the list in java.security

security.provider.N=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider

Still issue has not fixed.

Actually we don't want to use this security provider, I am happy disable it,
but not sure where to disable it

Please help us to fix this issue.

Server : Tomcat 6
GEOServer : 2.4.x

Hi Veeran

GeoServer 2.4.x is out of support. You should migrate to 2.8.x series before I can have a look at your problem.

Cheers
Christian
