Restarting Lucee (via server admin) fixes the issue. But that only helps for a few days and the same exception is thrown again. Once the exception occurs, all <cfdocument> calls are affected and immediately throw the exception.

OS: Windows Server 2019
Java Version: OpenJDK 11.0.10
Jetty Version: 10.0
Lucee Version: 5.3.7.47
PDF Extension Version: 1.0.0.80, 1.0.0.94 (I’m currently testing 1.0.0.96-SNAPSHOT)

Windows CF servers are not as stable as their NIX counterparts. Doesn’t matter which version of CF you are running, they simply are not as stable.

Run a script to reboot your Windows servers on a daily basis or run the same script on a production ready NIX host.

3

That’s a terrible response and not helpful at all. This is not about what operating system is better or worse.

The stacktrace indicates an issue with the way the dependency configuration is loaded (java.util.ServiceConfigurationError). Either something is deregistered during runtime or there is a package conflict of some sorts. It is way more likely that Jetty or Lucee are doing something OSGi related wrong here over the OS being Windows.

that’s an interesting bug.

are you using any third party java libs, maybe which only get called/loaded occasionally?

5

I am not knocking your problem, but I have 600+ boxes of which 120+ Windows problem children all of which if left to run even simple code such as HELLO WORLD from a script, eventually chew up all the available memory and crash. The only, and I leave this as a caveat as it crashes on a ton of other items is IBM WebSphere, which is rock solid as hell if not costly to implement versus a CENTOS or RHEL.

So please though, when you tear through either tomcat or windows and figure out the exact issue why after X days windows Tomcat JSP / CF pages start to error out, would love to hear it as so far Microsoft, IBM, HP, Dell, not to mention a plethora of contractors can’t give an answer why the same code on the same hardware running Windows crashes within 18+ hours where on NIX the uptime is until we restart it.

This We have tried
New hardware, different hardware
More more memory, faster disks, faster processors, more processors
Every server version of windows
Virtual / non-virtual implementations
compiling tomcat
ACF / LUCEE
software / code fixes
Tomcat / IBM Websphere

There are a dozen other things that have been tried including rewriting parts of the work flow in various other languages to compensate, but the end of the day is:

Windows Servers need restarted running heavy java loads
NIX servers do not

6

still OT and not relevant to the @akwas’s current problem, which is java related and I’ll happily bet you a beer it’s not OS related

7

It’s a separate JVM instance that runs only a single application. No external libraries/JARs (other than tuckey’s UrlRewriteFilter through Jetty), only official Lucee extensions. Edit: Actually we are having some custom JARs in the classloader path. I’ll remove them and test again.

We are running another JVM instance on the same machine that runs the same code (with a different configuration and a different domain). This one also uses <cfdocument>, but does not seem to have the issue.

Any ideas how to potentially cause/reproduce the problem? I was just running a loop of <cfdocument> with no problems so far.

I’m guessing it’s possibily an already solved problem,

some extensions bundle a copy of lucee.jar so we can reuse some functions, the PDF extension has a rather old 5.0.0.100-SNAPSHOT bundled with it, which maybe causing the problem

haha, i thought all this sounded way too familiar, just checked jira and viola!

Your post reminds me of an issue I had a long, long time ago from the times I’ve been generating PDF with third party tools (CF didn’t have HTML to PDF converter then). Just sharing it here, just in case… At that time I found out, that some special ASCI characters of the dynamic generating content triggered an exception.

Any chance that this may be related to any dynamic content outputted in the cfdocument body, that may cause an unloading of the libary?

The only significant detail about the PDF in question is the use of localUrl="true" and having a bunch of <img src="..."> tags referencing these local files.

Here is the code (I removed plain content for simplicity):

<cfdocument
	format="PDF"
	localUrl="true"
	pageType="A4"
>
	<cfoutput>

		<style type="text/css">
			[...]
		</style>

		<img src="/static/images/foo.png" />

		<div>
			[...]
		</div>

		<cfloop array="#imageUrls#" index="imageUrl">

			<img src="#imageUrl#" />
			<div>
				[...]
			</div>

		</cfloop>

		<cfdocumentitem type="footer" evalAtPrint="true">

			<div>

				<cfif (CFDOCUMENT.CurrentPageNumber eq CFDOCUMENT.TotalPageCount)>
					[...]
				</cfif>

				<div>
					#CFDOCUMENT.CurrentPageNumber# / #CFDOCUMENT.TotalPageCount#
				</div>

			</div>

		</cfdocumentitem>

	</cfoutput>
</cfdocument>

<cfheader name="Content-Type" value="application/pdf">
<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="inline">

I would try to add

fontembed =“true”
fontdirectory =“pathToWebFontUsed” <!— C:\App\font\myfont.ttf

that way you are not replying upon the fontconfig.bfc in tomcat, which by default lists off everything in the OS, it will save a small amount of memory.

Update: Problem still occurs with 1.0.0.96-SNAPSHOT and not having any custom JARs loaded. So I hope LDEV-3108 will fix it.
