問題

Since Java 9, the garbage collection JVM arguments have changed, as the Unified JVM Logging has been introduced. Using GC arguments such as those supported in Java 8 such as:

-Xloggc:<PATH_TO_GC_LOGS>
-XX:+PrintGCDetails
-XX:+PrintGCDateStamps
-XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps
-XX:+PrintGCCause
-XX:+UseG1GC
-XX:+UseGCLogFileRotation
-XX:NumberOfGCLogFiles=5
-XX:GCLogFileSize=20M

Bitbucket will not start, as the JVM will fail with errors:

Unrecognized VM option 'UseGCLogFileRotation'
 Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
 Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

環境

• AdoptOpen JDK 11 

ソリューション

To map old GC flags to the new ones you can reference 43 GC logging flags removed from Java 9. The following Java flags are no longer supported in Java 9 and upwards, as the Unified JVM Logging has been introduced:

-Xloggc:<PATH_TO_GC_LOGS>
-XX:+PrintGCDetails
-XX:+PrintGCDateStamps
-XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps
-XX:+PrintGCCause
-XX:+UseGCLogFileRotation
-XX:NumberOfGCLogFiles=5
-XX:GCLogFileSize=20M

Please ensure you append the following entry to continue logging the Garbage Collection (GC) activity. This should be added to the <Bitbucket-installation-directory>/bin/_start-webapp.sh. The entry should be assigned as a value for the JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS  parameter:

JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS="-Xlog:gc*:file=$BITBUCKET_HOME/log/gc-%t.log:tags,time,uptime,level:filecount=10,filesize=5M"

If you existing value assigned for JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS, please append the values.
