Hi, We have tomcat 6.0.14 installed on fedora core running JDK6.
Using 'service tomcat start' works fine (executes /etc/init.d/tomcat.sh) : su -c $TOMCAT_USER "$TOMCAT_SCRIPT start" (where $TOMCAT_USER == tomcat; $TOMCAT_SCRIPT == catalina.sh) However when we run the corresponding stop (equivalent to catalina.sh stop), tomcat doesn't shutdown cleanly. Sometimes we get an exception "connection refused", sometimes the JVM is shutdown, but the pid & lock file still exists. To counter this our tomcat script has a loop which waits for 30 seconds before kill -9 the tomcat process. Obviously this isn't the best solution. Has anyone else experienced a problem with tomcat6 not cleanly shutting down? I do testing etc on windows too and I notice from time to time that shutdown.bat will sometimes fail to cleanly shutdown tomcat, so I think the problem is in bootstrap.jar (Catalina.stop), and nothing to do with our linux environment Thanks, Kev --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
