We're running tomcat in standalone mode as a windows service. Every once and a while tomcat crashes with no logs or errors. Just not running anymore. The windows event log just says "service terminated unexpectedly". The tomcat service can be restarted without problems. We haven't been able to determine any pattern to these failures, either in time or in usage. And we can't reproduce it on demand.
We have two different installations, and both see this problem: Installation 1: Windows 2000 Server Java 1.4.2 Tomcat 5.0.18 Installation 2: Windows 2003 Server Java 1.5.0 Tomcat 5.5.16 I realize that this isn't much to go on, and I apologize for that. But what I'm really looking for is just some information about what we could possibly be doing in our web application that would cause tomcat to crash with no logs (aside from calling System.exit(), I did check that). Maybe if I present it as a challenge it will get someone's interest. Challenge: write a servlet that crashes tomcat (running as a windows service) without generating any logs! I'm just looking for any hints about what areas I whould be looking into. Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
