While playing with 4.1.15, I discovered some nasty problem with the
AJP13 implementation from JTC.
1) TC 4.1.15 set socket timeout (20000 = 20s) which make give you
Read exception after 20s of inactivity between webserver and Tomcat :
90577 [Thread-6] ERROR common.ChannelSocket - Error, closing connection
java.io.InterruptedIOException: Read timed out

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:512)
The problem is that the socket is NOT close at that time and even if TC
free the thread, the socket still exists and make webserver think that
it could send request (and sus wait forever replies !!!!)
I'll commit a patch to make the socket close in a finally area.
2) The second problem is related to the socket timeout settings.
In Ajp13 protocol, the webserver decide when it had to close
the socket since it's the client (initiator) of the connection.
if tomcat close the socket, the webserver won't detect before it will
try to read replies. It's a known problem with Sockets implementation
which make that write() calls on a half-closed connection DIDN'T
return error CODE, only read() calls with report the error that the
remote decided to close the connection.
As such I strongly recommand to disable the connectionTime by removing
the connectionTimeout in server.xml :
<!-- Define a Coyote/JK2 AJP 1.3 Connector on port 8009 -->
<Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector"
port="8009" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"
acceptCount="10" debug="0" connectionTimeout="0"
useURIValidationHack="false"
protocolHandlerClassName="org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler"/>
You should know that mod_jk 1.2.0 (don't know for latest 2.0.x),
have settings now which make webserver close unused sockets after
some time, just to be sure that the tomcat didn't have TOO many unused
threads.
3) I saw that linger are set to 100, which is not recommanded in
