I'm using JBossCache 1.4.1SP4 embedded into a server based application (ie, not using JBoss App Server). We recently saw a problem that lead to all updates to the cache to fail. We're running two servers with each server running JBossCache with replication and each server has their own cacheloader configured for a local cache loader using the BdbjeCacheLoader. Everything was running fine for some time with many updates when we got an exception when trying to commit a transaction: | java.lang.RuntimeException: | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.TxInterceptor$LocalSynchronizationHandler.beforeCompletion(TxInterceptor.java:1173) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.OrderedSynchronizationHandler.beforeCompletion(OrderedSynchronizationHandler.java:75) | at org.objectweb.jotm.SubCoordinator.doBeforeCompletion(SubCoordinator.java:1487) | at org.objectweb.jotm.SubCoordinator.commit_one_phase(SubCoordinator.java:416) | at org.objectweb.jotm.TransactionImpl.commit(TransactionImpl.java:239) | at org.objectweb.jotm.Current.commit(Current.java:488) | at danger.service.tpns.SubscriptionManager.subscribe(SubscriptionManager.java:198) | at danger.service.tpns.SubscriptionManager.subscribeDevice(SubscriptionManager.java:150) | at danger.service.tpns.ThirdPartyCalls.subscribe(ThirdPartyCalls.java:90) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) | at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) | at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.Invoker.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcWorker.invokeHandler(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcWorker.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcServer.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcServer.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.WebServer$Connection.run(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.WebServer$Runner.run(Unknown Source) | at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595) | Caused by: org.jboss.cache.ReplicationException: rsp=sender=10.253.229.164:44284, retval=null, received=false, suspected=false | at org.jboss.cache.TreeCache.callRemoteMethods(TreeCache.java:4436) | at org.jboss.cache.TreeCache.callRemoteMethods(TreeCache.java:4358) | at org.jboss.cache.TreeCache.callRemoteMethods(TreeCache.java:4469) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.BaseRpcInterceptor.replicateCall(BaseRpcInterceptor.java:110) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.BaseRpcInterceptor.replicateCall(BaseRpcInterceptor.java:88) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.ReplicationInterceptor.runPreparePhase(ReplicationInterceptor.java:152) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.ReplicationInterceptor.invoke(ReplicationInterceptor.java:69) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.Interceptor.invoke(Interceptor.java:68) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.CacheStoreInterceptor.invoke(CacheStoreInterceptor.java:136) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.Interceptor.invoke(Interceptor.java:68) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.TxInterceptor.runPreparePhase(TxInterceptor.java:873) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.TxInterceptor$LocalSynchronizationHandler.beforeCompletion(TxInterceptor.java:1147) | ... 20 more | Caused by: org.jboss.cache.lock.TimeoutException: Response timed out: sender=10.253.229.164:44284, retval=null, received=false, suspected=false | at org.jboss.cache.TreeCache.callRemoteMethods(TreeCache.java:4434) | ... 31 more | Since that exception, all attempts to update the cache in either server replica fails with the following: | Cannot add subscription to cache | java.lang.RuntimeException: | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.TxInterceptor$LocalSynchronizationHandler.beforeCompletion(TxInterceptor.java:1173) | at org.jboss.cache.interceptors.OrderedSynchronizationHandler.beforeCompletion(OrderedSynchronizationHandler.java:75) | at org.objectweb.jotm.SubCoordinator.doBeforeCompletion(SubCoordinator.java:1487) | at org.objectweb.jotm.SubCoordinator.commit_one_phase(SubCoordinator.java:416) | at org.objectweb.jotm.TransactionImpl.commit(TransactionImpl.java:239) | at org.objectweb.jotm.Current.commit(Current.java:488) | at danger.service.tpns.SubscriptionManager.subscribe(SubscriptionManager.java:198) | at danger.service.tpns.SubscriptionManager.subscribeDevice(SubscriptionManager.java:150) | at danger.service.tpns.ThirdPartyCalls.subscribe(ThirdPartyCalls.java:90) | at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor37.invoke(Unknown Source) | at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) | at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.Invoker.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcWorker.invokeHandler(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcWorker.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcServer.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcServer.execute(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.WebServer$Connection.run(Unknown Source) | at org.apache.xmlrpc.WebServer$Runner.run(Unknown Source) | at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595) | Caused by: com.sleepycat.je.DeadlockException: (JE 3.2.13) Lock expired.

</server> | It seems to be the first failure which happen when attempting replication cause some lock to be obtained in the BDBJE database and never released. Restarting both server seems to have cleared things up, but I'm very nervous about it happening again. Anyone have any ideas as to what might be going on or how to fix it?
