[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (SEAMCRON-37) IllegalArgumentException: timeout value is negative

IllegalArgumentException: timeout value is negative --------------------------------------------------- Key: SEAMCRON-37 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMCRON-37 Project: Seam Cron Issue Type: Task Affects Versions: 3.0.0.Alpha1 Environment: Tomcat 7.0.16, JDK6, Weld 1.1.0 Reporter: Christian Kaltepoth Assignee: Peter Royle I'm using Seam Cron to implement some background processing stuff in my application. Unfortunately after a few days the Quartz scheduler dies with this exception: {code} 2011-08-05 22:54:56,157 ERROR [QuartzSchedulerThread] Runtime error occured in main trigger firing loop. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: timeout value is negative at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) at org.quartz.core.QuartzSchedulerThread.run(QuartzSchedulerThread.java:296) {code} I did some research and found out that this is a known bug of Quartz 1.6.1. For details see the upstream issue: http://jira.opensymphony.com/browse/QUARTZ-707 This bug has been fixed in Quartz 1.6.2. So I think it would make sense to update the Quartz dependency of Seam Cron to the most recent Quartz version which is 1.6.5.
