Issue in Drools 4.0.7 when run in Multithreaded environment ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-1751 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-1751 Project: JBRULES Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 4.0.7 Environment: OS AIX 1.5 Reporter: Sitaraman Balaraman Assignee: Edson Tirelli Fix For: 5.0.1.FINAL Hi We have a batch program(Informatica mapping) which uses Jars taken from an application which uses JBoss Drools 4.0.7 and MVEL 1.3.7. The informatica Integration service runs in AIX Machine with JRE Version 1.5. The batch program process millions of records which in turn calls the Drools API. To improve the performance, we tried running our informatica process in a multi threaded environment(4 threads). While running we got the following exception for every record that we process(across all the threads). : Exception executing predicate eval( $terDate.before(ExtDateTimeUtils.getDate("01/01/1900")) ) at org.drools.rule.PredicateConstraint.isAllowed(PredicateConstraint.java:216) at org.drools.reteoo.AlphaNode.assertObject(AlphaNode.java:137) at org.drools.reteoo.CompositeObjectSinkAdapter.propagateAssertObject(CompositeObjectSinkAdapter.java:318) at org.drools.reteoo.AlphaNode.assertObject(AlphaNode.java:145) at org.drools.reteoo.CompositeObjectSinkAdapter.propagateAssertObject(CompositeObjectSinkAdapter.java:318) at org.drools.reteoo.ObjectTypeNode.assertObject(ObjectTypeNode.java:162) at org.drools.reteoo.Rete.assertObject(Rete.java:175) at org.drools.reteoo.ReteooRuleBase.assertObject(ReteooRuleBase.java:192) at org.drools.reteoo.ReteooWorkingMemory.doInsert(ReteooWorkingMemory.java:71) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.insert(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:911) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.insert(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:883) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.insert(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:684) at org.drools.reteoo.ReteooStatelessSession.execute(ReteooStatelessSession.java:160) ...

Could you please let me know if this is a known issue or is there any workaround for this problem? Thanks Sitaraman
