[SHARING/CASE OPENED] -INCLUDE taking down the server
Just a little FYI for anyone that might experience this. We had a user code a relatively simple fex, but every time he'd run it, the CPU on our server would max out at 100%. I came to find after some digging into the code, that this was the culprit:
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
-INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/endeflt.sty,$
ENDSTYLE
By having a
-INCLUDE
instead of just
INCLUDE
would cause Tomcat to max out the CPU on the server and would never recover without stopping Tomcat and restarting it.
Seems weird that IBI wouldn't have some sort safety check to keep that from happening.
I just thought that I would share with the community in case someone else experiences a similar issue.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Hallway,

Interesting.
We have had sporadic tomcat max cpu, but never pinned it down.
Something to check for.

Good one, would be good to open a case to fix this.
