I can certainly shorten the session timeout. When a user connects to the application, this does not generate a any activity in Tomcat. When the user accesses a program, then the user is using a connection. This connection is part of a connection pool. What I find odd is that the connection used is not the oldest idle session, but a new connection is created (if the max has not been reached). On top of this, the minimum idle sessions do not get used unless the max has been reached and all of the sessions above min are busy,
Is this the way Tomcat functions or just the way the application is accessing Tomcat? --- "Shapira, Yoav" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > There's no way to manage connections from the > command line, and you > probably don't want to do it anyways.
