Why JBoss AS 7 is creating Gigabytes of data in temp folder

[nick.sree]

When i run my .ear application twice or thrice my JBOSS_HOME/standalone/temp and works creates gigabytes of data. when we compare it with older Jboss versions its pretty huge. We are running out of disc space bcause of this. Have any thoughts about it?

What kind of data are created.

Does it happen with a fresh AS7?

Do you can isolate what application is is?

I'm trying to deploy  .ear with jackrabbit-jca in JBoss AS7.1.1 Final

Now i'm testing only one .war inside my .ear.

Once i freshly start my application and then shutdown it

(1st time )

    standalone/temp folder total size is  167 MB

   standalone/temp/work/  size is   170 KB

   standalone/temp/vfs/     size is   166 MB

    standalone/temp/auth   size is    0 KB

(2nd Time)

    standalone/temp folder total size is  238 MB

   standalone/temp/work/  size is   196 KB

   standalone/temp/vfs/     size is   238 MB

   standalone/temp/auth   size is    0 KB

(3rd Time)

standalone/temp folder total size is  309 MB

   standalone/temp/work/  size is   196 KB

   standalone/temp/vfs/     size is    309 MB

   standalone/temp/auth   size is    0 KB

Which means its increasing 71MB in vfs folder on each run.... so you can imagine what will be the throughput for a full fledged ear deployment

And its noticed that on each deployment its creating a folder called "deployment+random value" and having all my .ear/lib/jars inside

and one more folder called "temp+random value" and having my .rar deployment.

Jboss AS 7 forgot to remove the old deployments on restart or what ever... we are running out of disk space after 10 continuous deployment in our full fledged .ear deployment.

I cant seem to reproduce this. What operating system are you on? How are you shutting down the server. How did you deploy the application?

It's probably this https://community.jboss.org/message/723810#723810 which is fixed upstream.

I'm on Windows 7. I'm deploying starting and shutting down AS7 using eclipse IDE.

Its great to know that it got fixed in upstream. But i doubt, its the same issue what Jaikiran points?.
