Atomikos Forum

Hi,
when we simulate a server crash (kill -9 on our java process), it can occur sometimes that Atomikos 3.5.5 can not startup later on.
It fails with:
09/08/07 14:42:31 java.io.StreamCorruptedException
09/08/07 14:42:31     at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject0(ObjectInputStream.java:1326)

Seeing the code com.atomikos.persistence.imp.FileLogStream.recover()
you deal with the case that the file may be corrupt with catching a EOFException that you ignore.

We modified your code to also ignore the StreamCorruptedException.
I suppose that this are not all possible cases that can occur after a crash if trying to recover the log files.

If you need the tmXXX.log that was corrupt, I can provide a copy.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks,

Created a case for this.
