Help!! "Tomcat-3.2.2 Out of Memory Error"

[Thomas S <th...@imahima.com>]

Hello,

Please help me!!!!

Config:- Apache-1.3.14 +Tomcat 3.2.2 with mod_jk and Sun JDK 1.3 in RH-Linux 
7.0

I am getting out of memory error in the tomcat tc logs. Tomcat servers 
servlets and jsp with jdbc connections. This problem seems to be periodic 
after 12-13 hrs of tomcat restart.  We are using Dell Webapps server with 1G 
memory installed.

I could notice a free memory of ~200MB when tomcat spits this error.  I have 
gone through the tomcat mailing list, tried setting  -Xms8m -Xmx64m as tomcat 
options, but vain.

After this error, tomcat is not able to serve any sevlets,  and not able to 
controle the jdbc connection, hence the jdbc connection goes out of control , 
results spawning n. no of connections to database.


Is this a caching over flow problem? or JVM problem?


Thanks in Advance
