when defining custom executor for connector thread priority is not optional --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-5449 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5449 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Components: Domain Management Affects Versions: 7.1.2.Final (EAP) Reporter: Mathieu Lachance Assignee: Bartosz Baranowski Fix For: 7.2.0.Alpha1, 7.1.4.Final (EAP) when defining a custom executor in the threads subsystem for the connector defined in the web subsystem like : {code:xml} <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:threads:1.1"> <thread-factory name="ConnectorThreadFactory" group-name="ConnectorThreadPool"/> <unbounded-queue-thread-pool name="ConnectorThreadPool"> <max-threads count="500"/> <keepalive-time time="60" unit="seconds"/> <thread-factory name="ConnectorThreadFactory"/> </unbounded-queue-thread-pool> </subsystem> <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.1" default-virtual-server="default-host" native="false"> <connector name="ajp" protocol="AJP/1.3" scheme="http" socket-binding="ajp" redirect-port="8443" executor="ConnectorThreadPool"/> </subsystem> {code} it will fail with : {quote} 17:19:06,508 ERROR [org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint] (http-/0.0.0.0:8443-Acceptor-0) Error allocating socket processor: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException at java.lang.Thread.setPriority(Thread.java:1058) [rt.jar:1.6.0_31] at org.jboss.threads.JBossThreadFactory.createThread(JBossThreadFactory.java:127) [jboss-threads-2.0.0.GA.jar:2.0.0.GA] at org.jboss.threads.JBossThreadFactory.newThread(JBossThreadFactory.java:101) [jboss-threads-2.0.0.GA.jar:2.0.0.GA] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.addThread(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:672) [rt.jar:1.6.0_31] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.addIfUnderCorePoolSize(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:697) [rt.jar:1.6.0_31] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.execute(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:652) [rt.jar:1.6.0_31] at org.jboss.threads.JBossThreadPoolExecutor.execute(JBossThreadPoolExecutor.java:63) [jboss-threads-2.0.0.GA.jar:2.0.0.GA] at org.jboss.threads.DelegatingBlockingExecutorService.execute(DelegatingBlockingExecutorService.java:42) [jboss-threads-2.0.0.GA.jar:2.0.0.GA] at org.jboss.as.threads.ManagedExecutorService.execute(ManagedExecutorService.java:64) [jboss-as-threads-7.1.2.Final.jar:7.1.2.Final] at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint.processSocket(JIoEndpoint.java:1237) [jbossweb-7.0.16.Final.jar:] at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Acceptor.run(JIoEndpoint.java:325) [jbossweb-7.0.16.Final.jar:] at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662) [rt.jar:1.6.0_31] {quote} even though if documentation state that thread priority is optional : {code:xml} <xs:complexType name="thread-factory"> <xs:annotation> <xs:documentation> <![CDATA[ A thread factory (implementing java.util.concurrent.ThreadFactory).
