Author Oracle Application Server webcached leaking file handles

Hello,

I'm working on a problem we've been having with an OAS deployed application.
We have a W2K3 machine running OAS 10g, with an application that hits a
database on another machine. The server runs fine under light loads (we
haven't run under heavy load yet), but on the weekends we're getting a hard
crash of the server. When we look at the memory dump, we're seeing the webcached.exe
is holding a huge number of file handles - over 5000, which is ridiculous.
There is a documented filehandle leak with earlier versions of OAS that
has supposedly been fixed in 10. We cannot reproduce the problem on our
in-house hardware, but partially that's because we don't have an exact replica
of the client's machine. They are running Tivoli Storage Manager client
and a management package ( I forget which) but really not much else on the
server. We are working with Oracle on this, but I also wanted to put it
out in the community to see if anyone has experience with this type of problem.

If you can help, please reply either here or by email to jpenney@oakgroup.com.

Thanks,
John
