I started Tomcat using startup.bat. Everything goes fine. I use shutdown.batto bring it down. The server fields the request and shuts down a bunch of services (as evidenced by the messages I see). Sure enough, the server no longer responds to any requests. Unfortunately, the java process does not die.
I have this problem whether I start Tomcat by hand or if I use the Sysdeo Eclipse plugin. This problem has been a thorn in my side for some time but since it only affects my development environment (we use it as a service in production and there are no problems) and I can kill the process by hand, I've not worried about it. It's annoying as heck though and I'm wondering if someone can shed some light. I searched around but (surprisingly!!) I didn't find anything similar to my situation.
