Hi,
Thanks ,
No information from logs(tomcat as well as applicatoin logs)
System Event logs shows:
"The Apache Tomcat Service has terminated unexpectedly.It has done this 7
time(s).The following Corrective Action will be taken in 0 milliseconds:No
Action"
"terminated unexpectedly" means "crashed".
That is not very useful, is it ?
At least, it eliminates one thing : that some other service or program
(or user) would have nicely asked the Tomcat service to shut down.
Have you checked the "Application" log (in the same area as the Windows
System log) ?
Apart from all that, there is another possibility, but you will have to
go check in the Windows Registry.
You can open a Windows "command window" (also called sometimes "DOS
window") and run Tomcat at the command-line, instead of as a service.
Chances are that if it crashes nastily, it will then show some error
messages on the screen.
To do this, follow these steps :
1) edit the Windows Registry with the "Registry Editor" (at the
command-level, enter "regedt32").
Be careful not to change any value, because editing the Registry is
potentially dangerous.
2) This looks like an Explorer window. On the left side, you will see a
structure, much like a directory structure.
Find the key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE", expand it, and keep doing this
following the following path :
System..CurrentControlSet..Services..Tomcatx
3) when you click on the Tomcat key, then in the right panel you will
see a series of key/value things.
One of the keys is "ImagePath". Double-click on it, and it will open a
dialog box.
4) Now make sure that you do not change the value. Just copy it with
CTRL-C, then cancel and exit the Registry Editor.
What you have copied, is the command.line command that starts Tomcat.
Don't lose it.
Open Notepad, and paste the command there, you will need it later.
5) next, stop the Tomcat Service if it is running.
6) next, open a command window again, and paste the command that you
have copied before.
(If the command contains a parameter like "//RS....", remove this
parameter).
When you type the return key, this command will be executed, and this
will run Tomcat in your command window.
If you type CTRL-C, Tomcat will stop.
For the users, it will be exatly the same as if Tomcat was running as a
service. But for you, you will see on the screen any error messages
Tomcat prints.
The difference is that now Tomcat runs under the user-id under which you
are logged-in on this machine.
So, let it run until it dies, and let's see if you get any error message.
Note that you cannot logoff from the machine, or of course Tomcat will die.
Below is an example of what I get in the command window when I run
Tomcat (in this case, version 5.5) in the window :
