--- Comment #2 from Erich Siffert <si...@yahoo.com> --- ok, I digged into this a little bit deeper -- I figured out that there is a new flag "watchSource=false" (default is true) which can be set: <Resource name="UserDatabase" auth="Container" type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase" description="User database that can be updated and saved" factory="org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory" pathname="conf/tomcat-users.xml" watchSource="false" /> when I set the flag to false, everything seems to be fine! I suspect the issue is somewhere here: MemoryUserDatabase.java in method "public void backgroundProcess()" which reads the file: [...] URI uri = ConfigFileLoader.getURI(getPathname()); try { URL url = uri.toURL(); URLConnection uConn = url.openConnection(); [...] but it looks like it remains open.... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
