[users@httpd] "java.lang.OutOfMemoryException : Java heap space" for download due to ExtensionsFilter

[Dattaprasad Kamat <da...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

 I need help ...


 I'm using the Tomahawk library in our project. In web.xml I have an entry
as follows ...,
 --------------------
     <filter>
   <filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
   <filter-class>org.apache.myfaces.component.html.util.ExtensionsFilter
</filter-class>
     </filter>


      <filter-mapping>
          <filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
          <!-- servlet-name must match the name of your
javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet entry -->
          <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
      </filter-mapping>

      <!-- extension mapping for serving page-independent resources
(javascript, stylesheets, images, etc.)  -->
      <filter-mapping>
          <filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
          <url-pattern>/faces/myFacesExtensionResource/*</url-pattern>
      </filter-mapping>
         <filter-mapping>
           <filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
           <url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern>
       </filter-mapping>
         <filter-mapping>
           <filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
           <url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
   </filter-mapping>
  -------------------------


In the project I have download code as follows :

 private void copyFileToResponse(HttpServletResponse response,
FileInputStream fileIn) throws IOException {
         int BUFF_SIZE=4096;
   byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFF_SIZE];
   ServletOutputStream responseOutStream = response.getOutputStream();
         BufferedInputStream buf = new BufferedInputStream(fileIn);
         int n = 0;
         int count = 0;

  while((n = buf.read(buffer)) != -1) {


 //            responseOutStream.write(buffer);
             LOGGER.info("while loop : before write to Buffer and count => "
+ count);
             responseOutStream.write(buffer,0,n);
             count += n;

             LOGGER.info("while loop : copyFileToResponse flush");
             responseOutStream.flush();
             LOGGER.info("while loop : copyFileToResponse flushBuffer");
             LOGGER.info("while loop : after buffer read");
         }
         LOGGER.info("after while loop : before flushbuffer");
         buf.close();
         LOGGER.info("after while loop : before flushbuffer");
         response.flushBuffer();
         responseOutStream.close();
         LOGGER.info("after while loop : after flushbuffer");
 }


 My problem is as follows,


 If I have the mentioned entries in the web xml and I'm trying to downlaod >
100 MB file,

 the above code, throws

 "java.lang.OutOfMemoryException : Java heap space"

 org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteOutputStream.

 But it works fine if I remove the entries from the web.xml file.

 I have debuuged and found that if I keep above "MyFacesExtensionsFilter"
related entries in web.xml, the response is instantiated from
org.apache.myfaces.component.html.util.ExtensionsResponseWrapper, in which
case flush() doesn't work and causes the "java.lang.OutOfMemoryException :
Java heap space" error.

 If I remove the MyFacesExtensionsFilter related entries, the response gets
instantiated by
 "org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteOutputStream", in which case flush
works fine.


 Can anyone tell me how to avoid this situation by still maintaing the
"MyFacesExtensionsFilter" related entries in the web.xml.

Regards,
Datta

Sounds liek you found the wrong mailing list.  We discuss the Apache
