JBoss Portal 2.7.0 throwing segmentation fault

srivastava.vs Feb 23, 2009 7:16 PM

I have deployed a portal 2.7.0 with a few richfaces portlets on one of the boxes. The same server config also runs on my local machine (in fact, one is an exact copy of another)

The server on my local machine works absolutely fine.

The one on another machine, throws a segmentation fault whenever I try to open any of my portlets, and the server then crashes down. All other default portlets, provided by JBoss (admin/default etc ) work fine.

Invalid memory access of location 6d57a000 eip=9046fb31
./run.sh: line 255: 3193 Segmentation fault "$JAVA" $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.endorsed.dirs="$JBOSS_ENDORSED_DIRS" -classpath "$JBOSS_CLASSPATH" org.jboss.Main "$@"

please help!

One more thing,
The issue happens only after the page has been rendered. So, effectively, it does everything in the backend properly, gets the data, renders the page and ... crashes down

We found a similar case when working on our MAC OSX servers.

The issue is caused by AppleÃƒÂ¢Ã‚Â€Ã‚Â™s Quartz Renderer when using RichFaces. (reference -> http://www.davidsalter.co.uk/blog/)

To get around this problem we added the following line to the run.conf file of JBoss AS to tell the JVM not to use Apple's Quartz Renderer :

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=false"

In our case this worked.
