Are there known Tomcat 6.0 and JDK 1.7.0_02 issues? I know this is a hard question to answer, if the answer is no. But I need to ask just in case the answer is yes. Also I will accept any solutions to the issues below as answers. Please just share whatever issues you have had, and I will update this question if need be.
Issues: Some issues I have run into since upgrading from JDK 1.7.0 to 1.7.0_02 (which I did to avoid the Eclipse's help menus from crashing, due to a Java 1.7.0 bug.): * Tomcat server takes much longer to start, I need a 120 second timeout to handle it. * FATAL ERROR in native method: JDWP No transports initialized, jvmtiError=AGENT_ERROR_TRANSPORT_INIT(197) error, which disappeared the next day and then reappeared the third day, with no changes other than reloading Eclipse. * Tomcat server takes much longer to shut down. I need a 60 second timeout to handle it, from 15 second default. * Eclipse itself appears to crawl to a halt (figuratively speaking) upon building the workspace and validating the project at hand. Everything within Eclipse appears to take longer, even opening an unopened file. Everything seems suspicious. P.S. JDK 1.7.0_02 is also known as 1.7.0u2, Java SE 7u2, Java SE 7 Update 2, etc. Versions: * JDK = Oracle, 64-bit, downloaded from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html. Exact file downloaded and installed was jdk-7u2-windows-x64.exe. * Tomcat = Tomcat 6.0.33, downloaded separately from Eclipse * Eclipse = Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers., Version: Indigo Release, Eclipse Platform, Version: 3.7.0.v20110530-9gF7UHNFFt4cwE-pkZDJ7oz-mj4OSEIlu9SEv0f, Build id: I20110613-1736. * 64-bit Windows 7 machine Thank you, -- Matthew Doucette
