Q:I have error message on starting up example ServerApp. What's wrong?

A:ServerApp does not have a function to build its own resource files, etc. To start ServerApp in success, you should execute Thahiti, whose HOME directory is assigned to "c:\", before starting your ServerApp. (ServerApp use "c:\" as its home directory.) If you do not set your resources, you have the following messages. java.lang.NullPointerException at com. ibm.atp.agentsystem. aglets.ResourceManagerFactory. getResourceMana gerInCache(Compiled Code) at com. ibm. atp. agentsystem.aglets.

Q:I gen an out-of-memory error when I create and dispose of many (more than 10,000) aglets. How can I fix it?

A:If you are using JDK 1.1.5, it could be caused by your JDK. JDK 1.1.5 has a bug (bug number 4102107) that causes leakage of handles when threads exit. In programs that create and exit many threads, or for long-lived programs, this bug can lead to an out-of-memory condition.

There is no way to escape from the problem. You should use a differnent version of JDK.
