Error on tomcat console in Jruby on rails project

yani_engico · June 16, 2010, 7:47am

Hi,

I am developping a rails project and i am using jruby instead of ruby.

I got this error continuously on my console:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.kenai.jffi.Function.finalize(Function.java:177)
at java.lang.ref.Finalizer.invokeFinalizeMethod(Native Method)
at java.lang.ref.Finalizer.runFinalizer(Finalizer.java:83)
at java.lang.ref.Finalizer.access$100(Finalizer.java:14)
at java.lang.ref.Finalizer$FinalizerThread.run(Finalizer.java:160)

Could anyone tell me what the reason could be?

Environment:
Jruby version 1.5.0
Rails version 2.3.5
Postgre SQL database 8.3
apache-tomcat-6.0.26

I have created a war of my app thru warbler and have deployed the same
in tomcat.

In tomcat console i get the errror.

I think you need to provide some more detail - what do you mean by your
console? Is this when you start up the rails console?

Does anybody have a fix for this?

sorry make that tomcat 2.0.26

I have noticed when you stop the tomcat server

One work around we havd got was to stop tomcat server and then deploy
the war and then start the server

Basically avoid hot deploy.

However once again even after doing this once we got the above error in
console.

Any idea if we are doing anything wrong anywhere?

yani_engico · July 7, 2010, 2:21pm

It seems like an error you get after you reload or reinstall a warble
created war file.
