[Geoserver-users] Problem with GeoServer Web Archive Installation in Tomcat

Hi,

I installed GeoServer 2.2.2 web archive in Tomcat 6 using JDK 1.6.0_22 on my test server, but tomcat run too slow after the installation.

It worked fine while I installed it in my development local machine, just that Tomcat version is 5.5. The installation was straitforward and I could just run it using the default set up. So it is weird that there is problem on the server.

Anyone knows what will caused the problem of installation? Any suggestions?

Thanks so much!

Maggie

Is Tomcat running slow, or is GeoServer? What are the GeoServer runtime settings, and can you share how much memory / cpus your server has?

The problem most likely has nothing to do with the Tomcat version, Tomcat 6 is a widely deployed platform under many different scenarios.

Did the installation complete? Are you able to run GeoServer and see its admin page? Again, it would be nice to see if you get any errors, and what configuration parameters you are using before being abe to make an educated guess as to what’s happening.

Thanks

Thanks so much!

Hi,

we are running many applications with java virtual machines, tomcat and others. Perhaps your heap space is not big enough so the virtual machine has to do much garbage collection, which is enormous time consuming if it is small enough. In some applications we had factor 20 up to 100 higher computing times because the garbage collection was working all the time. The problem is, that java is doing a dynamical configuration depending on the system, for example 32 or 64 bit.

Hope that I wrote just correct facts, but if I am not right in all details, I think that this could be a good point to start searching. Try do add –Xmx and other options as described in the documentation:

http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/production/container.html

I am interested in every case if this would help you or not.

Cheers

Stefan

Thanks Juan and Stefan! Your suggestions are very helpful!

It was GeoServer that run slowly. And an exisitng application also run slowly after the installation of GeoServer.

I found an error in the log: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen. So I configured Tomcat with these:
-Xmx1400m
-XX:PermSize=256m

GeoServer and the exisiting application run normal after the configuration.

Thanks!!!
