Title
JRE crashes intermittently when using V5.6.2 Integration cartridge and V5.6.2 FMS. -
Description
The FMS and the Integration cartridge were upgraded to V5.6.2. Since then we have seen the JRE crash intermittently which crashes the FMS.
-
Cause
Foglight uses a custom method for forking external processes to work around a problem in Java on Solaris where twice the amount of memory configured for Foglight has to be available. The is a bug in this custom code that can cause an access violation (COM-1282) which is fixed in Foglight 5.7.
The switch to disable the Foglight process running via –Dquest.common.process-runner.disabled=true turns on the Java default behavior for all platforms and should resolve this issue in the meantime.

Resolution
STATUS: COM-1282 is scheduled to be fixed in the 5.7 release of FMS. Due Nov 2015.
WORKAROUND: Start the FMS with the following switch:
-Dquest.common.process-runner.disabled=true
You can add the switch as an option server.cmdline.option1="-Dquest.common.process-runner.disabled=true "; in the $FGLHOME/config/server.config file.
