I am working on one application using EJB1.2. previously running fine but from past few days I am getting following exception
Exception in ejbLoad:: weblogic.ejb20.cache.CacheFullException: size=85783, target=5000, incr=1 at weblogic.ejb20.cache.EntityCache$SizeTracker.shrinkNext(JI)Lweblogic.ejb20.cache.EntityCache$MRUElement;(EntityCache.java:438) at weblogic.ejb20.cache.EntityCache.put

For now I am changing value of <max-beans-in-cache> in weblogic-ejb-jar.xml
I am changing the above value to <max-beans-in-cache>100000</max-beans-in-cache>
is it the only solution for this kind of exception or could there be a data related issue from database?
10000 is quite a high value for max-beans-in-cache and from the log it seems the application tried to make a call for up to 85785 instances of the EJB.
I would suggest some refactoring in your code.
Your code is doing
com.nextjet.enterprise.locationcode.locationcode.LocationCode_v2epgs_ELOImpl
.getLocationCodeData()
Is this is mainly a read operation ? Or are you doing simultaneous writes and reads?
You could refactor this in 2 ways to reduce the EJB overheads if it is mainly doing read operations.
1) Read Oracle's recommendation on tuning the EJB settings and database options for concurrency, especially the Read-Mostly pattern
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs81/ejb/entity.html#ChoosingaConcurrencyStrategy
2) If you are mainly doing reads - then dont use Entity EJBs at all. Use the FastLaneReader pattern which is using a direct JDBC call to fetch the data for SELECT, and you can do writes using the EJBs as at present. In this way, the max-beans-in-cache can be reduced
A very detailed example is given on the Sun Design Patterns site
