I gathered what info I could and attempted to stop the Jetty servlet container in order to restart it. Jetty wouldn't go down. I tried kill. Then I tried kill -9 and it still wouldn't go down!
There should be no way for a Java program to prevent the JVM from going down on a kill signal, let alone a kill -9. The latter usually indicates the JVM hangs somewhere in kernel code, some suspects: - a bug in a device driver - a hardware defect - corruption of a kernel related binary or a device driver There are of course half a zillion other possibilities, including problems with thread deadlocks mentioned elsewhere. Your options: Run a hard disc health check. Make sure the box is pingable on all interfaces after it hangs. Try to run the code on another machine, preferably on another JVM and/or OS, and check whether the problem pops up there too.
