JBOSS: Release ID: JBoss [WonderLand] 3.2.1 (build:
CVSTag=JBoss_3_2_1 date=200305041533)
OS: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
CPU: Intel pentium 4 3Ghz, with hyperthreading
JVM: java version "1.3.1_02", 1.3.1_02-b02
Stack traces: attached

I have 2 threads, each issuing a Class.forName ()
through the following util:

public static Class forName (final String className)
throws ClassNotFoundException {

final Thread currentThread = Thread.currentThread ();
final ClassLoader classLoader =
currentThread.getContextClassLoader ();
final Class newClass = classLoader.loadClass
(className);
return newClass;
}

I get a deadlock in the JBoss LoadMgr quite regularly
during startup.

    Attach a thread dump of the deadlock.

    i attached LoadMgr.nextTask.deadlock.txt in the original post.
    it contains the traces of 2 threads stuck in LoadMgr.nextTask
    ()
    if you need something different, just shoot & i'll get it to you.

    I'm going to need the trace level log as described in the
    docs section on class loading debugging.

    i attached ucl.log on 9/2 but didn't see an email notification
    for it. so this is just to generate the notification.

    The log file only has 3 lines in it. See this link
    https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=14918&group_id=22866
    for how to configure the trace level logging. It requires
    putting the following into the conf/log4j.xml file:

    <appender name="UCL" class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender">
    <param name="File"
    value="${jboss.server.home.dir}/log/ucl.log"/>
    <param name="Append" value="false"/>
    <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
    <param name="ConversionPattern"
    value="[%r,%c{1},%t] %m%n"/>
    </layout>
    </appender>
    <category name="org.jboss.mx.loading" additivity="false">
    <priority value="TRACE" class="org.jboss.logging.XLevel"/>
    <appender-ref ref="UCL"/>
    </category>

    Reopen when you have a log that shows the deadlock.

    Scott:

    I was finally able to recreate this with UCL tracing ON as you
    had requested.

    Let me know what else I can do to help resolve this.

    Sal.

    Someone submitted a testcase that demonstrated a way to
    deadlock the class loaders and this has been fixed for
    3.2.4RC2. Try that version when its out next week.
