Exception java.util.zip.ZipFile.ensureOpenOrZipExc

When I am deploying an application on WebSphere Application Server 7.0 , I am getting below exception and its taking too much time to deploy. After few deployments the server start generating heap dumps and running out of memory. In our application we are using JAX-WS for generating Web Service Clients. We are also using JSF 1.2 for view. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Yeeh,

Finally got the solution after a long R&D :)

Below link contain useful information.

What we did just change the module level of application to 2.4 and placed wsdl folder under WebContent. The main issue was due to annotation processing of the application at the time of deployment. The deployment process for the module metadata requires a new step to scan the Java annotations data from classes that are packaged in the module. As we are using JAX-WS as a client of WebServices it includes annotation processing. The processing of annotation of JAX-WS requires reading of wsdl files to generate update clients for each deployments. In this process of reading wsdl it was facing problem as its located in WEB-INF folder initially. I just change the location of wsdl and its working fine now.
