SFSB timeout setting

ci Oct 30, 2006 4:15 AM

Hello!

I am using JBoss 4.0.5.GA and Seam 1.1.

I permanently get exceptions like that:

19:23:07,124 WARN [Contexts] Could not destroy component: clientEditor
javax.ejb.EJBNoSuchObjectException: Could not find Stateful bean: 5r4m5v-man6m0-etofwmzy-1-etog131z-g

In Seam forum they told that one has to use @CacheConfig and set it to the value greater that http session timeout. Http session dies by default after 30 minutes, so CacheConfig should be set to 1800.

Http session timeout can be set from web.xml, say, in one place. I want to set @CacheConfig also in one place and not in every bean. I found

<max-bean-life>1800</max-bean-life>

in standardjboss.xml, but it seems not to work (timeout 300 below):

18:36:37,610 INFO [NamingHelper] JNDI InitialContext properties:{java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory, java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces}

More, it seems that nobody looks in xml file any more:

public @interface CacheConfig
{
 int maxSize() default 100000;

 long idleTimeoutSeconds() default 300;
}

...

sessionTimeout = config.idleTimeoutSeconds();

...

I do not know whether it is a bug or not...

Please, advise, how to set SFSB timeout correctly in xml (not through annotations) for all SFSB beans in ear?

By the way, can I control a timeout when a bean is passivated? And how can I list all instantiated/passivated/alive SFSB (through jmx-console, I suppose, but I cannot find where...)?

Thank you in advance.

Hi

you could control life time of bean by using the following configurations...

<container-configuration>
<container-name>Standard Stateful SessionBean</container-name>
<container-cache-conf>
<cache-policy>org.jboss.ejb.plugins.LRUStatefulContextCachePolicy</cache-policy>
<cache-policy-conf>
<min-capacity>50</min-capacity>
<max-capacity>1000000</max-capacity>
<remover-period>300</remover-period>
<max-bean-life>300</max-bean-life>
<overager-period>200</overager-period>
<max-bean-age>600</max-bean-age>
<resizer-period>400</resizer-period>
<max-cache-miss-period>60</max-cache-miss-period>
<min-cache-miss-period>1</min-cache-miss-period>
<cache-load-factor>0.75</cache-load-factor>
</cache-policy-conf>
</container-cache-conf>
</ <container-configuration>

-------------------------------------------------
max-bean-age:specifies the maximum period of
-----------------
inactivity in seconds a bean can have before it will be passivated by the overager process.

max-bean-life: specifies the maximum period of
----------------
inactivity in seconds that a bean can exist before being removed from the passivation store.

thank you!

btw, I found the answer to my first question.

ejb3-interceptors-aop.xml:

<domain name="Stateful Bean" extends="Base Stateful Bean" inheritBindings="true">
...
 <annotation expr="!class(@org.jboss.annotation.ejb.cache.simple.CacheConfig) AND !class(@org.jboss.annotation.ejb.Clustered)">
 @org.jboss.annotation.ejb.cache.simple.CacheConfig (maxSize=100000, idleTimeoutSeconds=3600)
 </annotation>
...
 </domain>

I'm afraid that is not true. Those parameters only control EJB2 beans, not EJB3.

This is helpful regarding this problem:

http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/JbossTimeoutSettingForSeam

It states that serializability problems may be the root cause of this exception as well. But if that's true, wouldn't you get serializable/passivation exceptions in the server.log? I've seen those before when I had a Map instance variable in my SFSB (and not marked transient).
