Exception loading sessions from persistent storage

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20622746/exception-loading-sessions-from-persistent-storage

This is to do with Tomcat not being able to load previously serialized web sessions that had been saved on an earlier shutdown. This may be because Tomcat didn't shutdown cleanly and so session objects got corrupted during serialization.

One way to make this error go away would be to disable session persistence across restarts. You can do this by editing the file CATALINA_HOME/conf/context.xml and setting the pathname attribute of the <Manager> to an empty string. This is well documented in the file for Tomcat 7:

<!-- Uncomment this to disable session persistence across Tomcat restarts --> <!-- <Manager pathname="" /> -->

You should also delete any old session.ser files from the CATALINA_HOME/work/Catalina/localhost/<appName> folder whilst Tomcat is shutdown.

This may not be acceptable in your case if session persistence across restarts is needed. In which case further debugging of the issue would be necessary.

只需要修改tomcat目录下  conf下 context.xml。

改成下边这样：

下边是百度的结果

严重: Exception loading sessions from persistent storage 
java.io.EOFException

删除Tomcat里面的work/Catalina/localhost下的内容即可解决

Tomcat在启动时出现如下异常问题：

严重: IOException while loading persisted sessions: java.io.EOFException
严重: Exception loading sessions from persistent storage

是因为保存在硬盘上的session数据读取失败，问题似乎不大，但是如果不处理一下，每次启动都会出现这个问题，处理方法如下：

将work下面的文件清空，主要是*.ser文件，或者只是删除掉session.ser亦可。

 

 

错误描述:....while loading persisted sessions: java.io.EOFException... 
分析:EOFException表示输入过程中意外地到达文件尾或流尾的信号,导致从session中获取数据失败。异常是tomcat本身的问题，由于tomcat上次非正常关闭时有一些活动session被持久化（表现为一些临时文件），在重启时，tomcat尝试去恢复这些session的持久化数据但又读取失败造成的。此异常不影响系统的使用。
