Java thread dump where main thread has no call stack? (jsvc)
- by dwhsix
We have a java process running as a daemon (under jsvc). Every several days it just stops doing any work; output to the logfile stops (it is pretty verbose, on 5-minute intervals) and it consumes no CPU or IO.
There are no exceptions logged in the logfile nor in syserr or sysout. The last log statement is just prior to a db commit being done, but there is no open connection on the db server (MySQL) and reviewing the code, there should always be additional log output after that, even if it had encountered an exception that was going to bubble up.
The most curious thing I find is that in the thread dump (included below), there's no thread in our code at all, and the main thread seems to have no context whatsoever:
"main" prio=10 tid=0x0000000000614000 nid=0x445d runnable [0x0000000000000000]
java.lang.Thread.State: RUNNABLE
As noted earlier, this is a daemon process running using jsvc, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it (I can restructure the code to also allow running it directly, to test).
Any suggestions on what might be happening here?
Thanks... dwh
