Removing HPROF dump files
July 28, 2014 1 Comment
Revisiting the topic of Livecycle consuming everything in its path, I found another issue that features in Livecycle ES4 SP1. The symptoms are the usual symptoms; lack of disk space, server crashing, etc. After hunting down all of the extra large files in your system you might find a number of very large files in the following path:
[livecycle_install_dir]/crx-repository/launchpad/felix/bundle33/dumps
Heap dump off
To turn this feature off, do the following:
- Browse to the AEM system console: http://host:port/lc/system/console
- Locate the bundle
org.apache.felix.webconsole.plugins.memoryusage
- Stop the bundle
You can then stop Livecycle, delete the HPROF files and restart Livecycle. The bundle should not restart, but its worth checking anyway.
