Do you think that there is something wrong in the way Tomcat > interfaces with winsock? There can be different components that interact with networking. 1. There are 2 different connection protocols in Tomcat with 3 different implementations each (bio, apr, nio). Which one you are using? See what is logged when Tomcat starts. 2. There are database drivers. What database drivers are you using? > 4. Do you believe that Tomcat APR might resolve this issue? > 5. I can't seem to download this hotfix to further investigate these > files, they might contain a suitable version.

I am not sure whether service can be killed as well as a standalone program. > Please share your wisdom and Tomcat greatness, > Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
