JVM 1.4.2.X is fine, best thing to do is downgrade to the version of tomcat at ftp.opennms.org. As far as that error I see it as well with tomcat 4.1.18 but don't see any ill affects. I actually have slated the next rainy saturday for working out the issues with running Tomcat 4.1.27. The OpenNMS list already has some stuff of relevance on it if you want to run Tomcat 4.1.27. And yes, java still has garbage collection issues, but many people will never see them, appears you have to make quite a few socket calls or some less common combination of calls. I monitor about 450 nodes/1050 interfaces and have not seen the problem since July, but I also run cvs head , never more than 2 weeks behind. Ted
