Last-login date feature creates deadlocks
-----------------------------------------
Key: JBPORTAL-2098
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-2098
Project: JBoss Portal
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Components: Portal Core
Affects Versions: 2.7.0 Beta1, 2.7.0 Alpha1, 2.6.6 Final, 2.6.5 SP1
Reporter: Thomas Heute
Assignee: Sohil Shah
Fix For: 2.7.0 CR1 , 2.6.7 Final
The code in the User Interceptor that set the last time a user was logged is creating
locks.
In fact threads are trying to acquire a write lock on the user.
I disabled it for a customer, now we need a generic solution.
I think to remember that the reason it is done that way is that someone wanted the date
when the session stops instead of when it starts.
Sohil, could you have a look and either:
- keep that feature but done in a different way (i don't see how)
- record the last login date (instead of last logout) i think this is acceptable in many
scenario, anyway the other solution is not perfect neither, most people never log out so
it records the session timeout date.
- move the code to another interceptor so that it can be easily turned off and turn it off
by default in 2.7
