EJB3 hot redeployment causes a permanently locked file handle ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-3985 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3985 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Deployment services, EJB3 Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.5.GA Environment: Windows XP Pro, JRE 1.5_9, JBoss AS 4.0.5.GA, EJB3.CR9.patch1 Reporter: Vladimir Ralev Assigned To: Dimitris Andreadis I am not sure which component is responsible for the bug, but since it happened with an ejb3-jar I am rising it here. If it doesn't belong here please forward it the right place. 1. I copy titan.jar to the deploy folder -> the server deploys the ejb3 application and says ejb running 2. I delete titan.jar from the deploy folder -> the server says that the app is undeployed 3. I copy titian.jar in the deploy folder again -> the server deploys the ejb3 application and says ejb running again (everything seems ok for now, here comes the problem) 4. I try to delete titan.jar from the deploy folder -> I get a windows explorer error message saying that the file is in use and can't be deleted. When I checked with process explorer which process is using the file it turned out it's the java.exe process (the server didn't release the handle?). This doesn't not occur on Linux! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
