Problem
When uninstalling a large WebSphereCommerceSuite enterprise application using the WebSphere® Application Server administrative console , the uninstall fails with OutOfMemory or jts transaction rollback exceptions. This happens with all administrative tools, including console, wscp, and XMLConfig . This problem can occur with any large enterprise Application.
 
Cause
The following exception is issued in the tracefile during uninstall:

36b4b1 CoordinatorIm I WTRN0066W: Transaction                          
com.ibm.ejs.jts.jts.CoordinatorImpl@3680180#tid=1171 has timed out after

com.ibm.ejs.csi.TransactionControlImpl.getCurrentTransaction(Transaction
ControlImpl.java:519)         at                                        
com.ibm.ejs.container.EJSContainer.getCurrentTx(EJSContainer.java:1077)
at com.ibm.ejs.container.EJSContainer.preInvoke(EJSContainer.java:1637)                  

Sometimes it fails with OutOfMemory exceptions, even though the JVM™ has enough heap settings .

The problem occurs because during application uninstall, the JNDI context is cleaned up. For systems with large applications, the name space can be large, which slows down the application uninstall process, causing it to eventually time out.
