Tomcat 6 enhancement: Please consider giving us the ability to change the process name for linux applications. I have identified all of the places I believe this needs to be done.
Would you please consider adding the following to the catalina.sh file: 1) In the variable section at the top please add: CATALINA_PROCESS_NAME (Optional) This variable will set the linux process name to a particular value. 2) There needs to be an if statement that checks to see if a value has been passed to CATALINA_PROCESS_NAME. If there has been then the string "-a " needs to be appended to the front of the value. If not then the value would be "". 3) Then replace any occurance of "$_RUNJAVA" with exec "$CATALINA_PROCESS_NAME" . This will allow the process to be named. Thanks for considering this change, Lance Campbell Software Architect University of Illinois Web Services at Public Affairs 217-333-0382
