NPE while decrement ref count

Hi ,

i'm hanging with a NPE Problem. This occurs only on production
environment from day to day.

Do anyone know some thing about this ?

java.lang.NullPointerException

        at

hi,

thanks for your fast response!

I'm using :
/
java version "1.6.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_25-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)
/
This is a 32-bit Oracle JVM (JDK), not the 64-bit on RedHat, but maybe
its a bug on REHL.

While I write this, I download the newest oracle version and try it.
Also I just enabled assertions in JVM. I have to wait for occurrence.

RE: NPE while decrement ref count

Posted by Uwe Schindler <uw...@thetaphi.de>.
Hi,

I opened the code, the NPE occurs here:

      if (bytes != null) {
        assert bytesRef != null;
        bytesRef.decrementAndGet(); // <-- LINE 102, NPE occurs here
        bytes = null;
        bytesRef = null;
      } else {
        assert bytesRef == null;
      }

This is completely impossible - can you enable assertions in your running JVM to be sure ("-ea:org.apache.lucene..." JVM parameter)? It cannot be a threading issue, because all this code is synchronized.

As you reported another issue with your JVM has segmentation faults, could it be that you have a buggy JVM. Are you using the official Oracle ones, or is this a modified one, e.g. by RedHat? If it is OpenJDK, it is better to use Java 7, as the Java 6 ones may not behave identical to Oracle's official JDKs and may be more buggy.

Can you also post your full JVM version (java -version) and where you got it from?

Uwe
