[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBMESSAGING-1660) journal files not getting cleaned up and server startup fails

journal files not getting cleaned up and server startup fails ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBMESSAGING-1660 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBMESSAGING-1660 Project: JBoss Messaging Issue Type: Bug Components: Messaging Core Persistence Affects Versions: 2.0.0 Beta1 Environment: Windows Vista SP1 32 bit, 2 GB RAM Reporter: Jbm User Assignee: Clebert Suconic Attachments: jbm-configuration.xml, jbm-jms.xml, src.zip Hi, I am using JBM 2.0.0.BETA1 stand alone server. I have added 1 million messages in a queue with following page settings in jbm-configuration.xml <paging-max-global-size-bytes>52428800</paging-max-global-size-bytes> <global-page-size>10485760</global-page-size> When I try to consume these messages it is observed that sometimes (especially when using Session.CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE), the journal folder size grows to 2 to 3GBs and stays there even after client has consumed all the messages . When I checked the Paging/ folder, it is empty (as expected). It seems the Journal garbage collector is not correctly cleaning up the files from journal/ folder. Now, the issue is that, when I try to restart the server, it fails and throws OutOfMemroyException . I am able to successfully restart the server after manually deleting all journal files. I am not sure why server is loading the journal files on start up when all the messages are already consumed.
