I have J2SE application running in 1.5 java VM in RHEL OS. One of the task of the application is to create 3 infinitely running user threads, during startup. The purpose is to check for a request of a particular type in backend DB table and do corresponding operations.

As we observed, the long running threads suddenly stops running, but still the application is alive and JVM process can be seen, in ps -ef|grep java

Can someone throw light on why threads which are created to run in infinite loop, stops suddenly? Any ideas on how to detect this issue and possible resolution will be of great help

With Regards,
Krishna

    I would suggest sending a Ctrl+Break to your app, dumping the threads and analysing the output. Perhaps your threads are waiting for some input (IO). Perhaps they’re deadlocked. Perhaps they’ve exited with an uncaught exception. The thread dump will tell you what’s going on (and it helps if you name your threads in advance so you can identify them in the dump).
