Does anybody know how to get around this error?

Cheers,
Nicholas

The machine/ruby runs out of memory.

* maybe your machine doesn't have enough memory? Could this reasonably
be?
(run top in parallel to your program to see)
* or maybe there's a memory problem in soap4r. There have recently been
memory
utilization fixes in soap4r. Maybe you want to try a recent soap4r?

Thank you -- I will a more recent soap4r as the issue arises on the
same line everytime. I'm on a shared hosting environment running a
Rails app and need to include the path to the udpate version of soap4r
-- I'm doing this but it seems to be using the old version in
/usr/local/lib/ruby. Any ideas?

$:.unshift("#{RAILS_ROOT}/vendor/soap4r/lib")

[Nicholas]

Ignore my last message, I had to put it in the Rails::Initializer.run
block.

[Nicholas]

OK - updating the soap4r to the most recent release 20060830 hasn't
helped. I guess I have a memory leak somewhere as tpo suggested. I will
look into this tomorrow.

Hmm. Soap4r tries to check if a given byte sequence of string is UTF-8
encoded. Please ensure you give an UTF-8 encoded string.

Anyway, soap4r (+ ruby) should not consume much memory only for
validation. I'll drop the validation. (XML processor must check instead)

OK, I was using XMLSimple to convert my reply from the webservice to a
Hash. That seemed to be a huge memory hog. I'm now using REXML and
streaming the XML. This is working a lot better. But I still having
memory problems somewhere.

I am using REXML also to build my XML requests. Should I encode the
whole XML string using my_xml.to_s.unpack('C*').pack('U*') to get
encode as UTF-8?

Thank you,
Nicholas

Soap4r < 2006-07-22 consumed huge memory as the ticket
http://dev.ctor.org/soap4r/ticket/224. Is it related to your situation?

I disabled regex based CES checking recently. Would you please try the
repository?

When all of your string is iso-8859-1 encoded, add the following line
somewhere in startup code.

XSD::Charset.encoding = "X_ISO8859_1"

or, as you stated, convert it to UTF-8 before passing it to soap4r.

Thank you very much for checking this out, however I still have a
memory issue after using the new version. I'm going to investigate in
other areas of my rails app as it could be located somewhere else.
Possibly just running out of memory becauese of another issue, but
crashing at the same point.

Thanks again,
Nicholas
