When it does, it usually seems to crash very fast after starting this task for one of the bigger channels. I've already enabled debug logging, but the only errors I'm getting are: /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log ERROR | wrapper | 2014/10/31 21:46:46 | JVM appears hung: Timed out waiting for signal from JVM. ERROR | wrapper | 2014/10/31 21:46:46 | JVM did not exit on request, terminated STATUS | wrapper | 2014/10/31 21:46:47 | JVM exited in response to signal SIGKILL (9). ERROR | wrapper | 2014/10/31 21:46:47 | Unable to start a JVM STATUS | wrapper | 2014/10/31 21:46:48 | <-- Wrapper Stopped /var/log/messages Oct 31 21:46:46 spacewalk wrapper[22867]: JVM appears hung: Timed out waiting for signal from JVM. Oct 31 21:46:46 spacewalk wrapper[22867]: JVM did not exit on request, terminated Oct 31 21:46:47 spacewalk wrapper[22867]: JVM exited in response to signal SIGKILL (9). Oct 31 21:46:47 spacewalk wrapper[22867]: Unable to start a JVM Oct 31 21:46:48 spacewalk wrapper[22867]: <-- Wrapper Stopped Apart from those I can't seem to find any other error messages (not in the taskomatic log, not in syslog, not in tomcat logs, ...) at the same time that could indicate what is going wrong. Anyone have any pointers as to where I could look next to hopefully solve this problem? We're starting to use spacewalk more and more and taskomatic always crashing is getting to be an issue. Of course I could use a cronjob to check its status periodically and restart it if necessary, but that's only a bandaid solution... <div> -- Jeremy Maes Team Technische Support Groep Schaubroeck | BU IT Steenweg Deinze 154 | 9810 Nazareth T +32 (0)9 389 05 29 <a href="mailto:jma@schaubroeck.be">jma@schaubroeck.be</a> | <a href="http://www.schaubroeck.be/">www.schaubroeck.be</a> Volg Groep Schaubroeck op <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/schaubroeck-nv"> <img border="0" width="13" height="13" id="_x0000_i1025" src="cid:image001.png@01CFF747.22A57080" alt="LinkedIn"></a> </div> **** DISCLAIMER **** <a href="http://www.schaubroeck.be/maildisclaimer.htm">http://www.schaubroeck.be/maildisclaimer.htm</a> </div> This email and any accompanying attachments are confidential.
