Hi
We are using WebSphere Application server on Sun solaris box as a
development application server. As a part of the development, we
frequently FTP the java class files to the application server. When we
do this, we noticed that the sessions of the users who are already
logged in the application running on that WAS are getting lost. They
have to reenter the credentials again to navigate through the
application. As the day work goes on, after certain number of class
files are uploaded onto the server by FTP, the application server is
throwing Out of Memory error and coming to a halt. When we try to
access the url it throws the OutOfMemory error in the logs. This is
hampering our development work, as we have to restart the development
server atleast twice in a day. Our assumption is that, whenever we do
a class fild upload all the sesssions on the server are getting lost
and new objects/ sessions are created. Before the garbage collector
runs, the frequent upload of class files are causing to create more
and more objects. Please suggest or advise a workaround or solution
for this.

Danda
