Error code 206 in Google AppEngine

[Ananthakrishnan Venkatasubramanian]

Hi,

We have an application developed using Java running in Google AppEngine.

Recently came across with following error in google appengine and returned 500 (production environment).

Error Message: A problem was encountered with the process that handled this request, causing it to exit. This is likely to cause a new process to be used for the next request to your application.(Error code 206)

The request ran for only 968ms and throwed 500 with the above message.

Note: All the other requests that came prior to the same instance of the server didn't cause any errors. They ran successfully.

Please provide the reasons for this kind of failure and what is the remedy for it.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,

Ananthakrishnan.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention though this group is better suited for best practices and implementation-type. For specific issues that you believe to be problems with the platform, I would direct you to our Public Issue Tracker for App Engine. That is a more appropriate forum for this type of issue to get the appropriate attention.

Should you file an issue there, please provide a link to it on this thread, Also, since 500 errors can be served for almost any error in application code, please include error logs, stack traces and code samples that might be related on said issue.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Will file it in the issue tracker. For this particular issue, there is no stacktrace in the appengine logs. Only the mentioned Error Message came in the logs and the request was terminated with 500.
