Public bug reported: When shutting down tomcat6 by "/etc/init.d/tomcat6 stop" the contained web apps within tomcat do not get shut down. This is visible as the initialized Servlets within the web apps never have their destroy() method being called. This way a web app cannot shut down gracefully and save all the current data. For examle when re- or undeploying a web app, it is shut down gracefully and the Servelet's destroy() method is being called.
I remember the shutdown worked fine for tomcat5.5 on ubuntu 8.04. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS Release: 10.04 apt-cache policy tomcat6 tomcat6: Installed: 6.0.24-2ubuntu1.7 Candidate: 6.0.24-2ubuntu1.7 Version table: *** 6.0.24-2ubuntu1.7 0 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates/main Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-security/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 6.0.24-2ubuntu1 0 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: tomcat6 6.0.24-2ubuntu1.7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-33.71-generic 2.6.32.41+drm33.18 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-33-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Aug 17 12:03:54 2011 PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: tomcat6 ** Affects: tomcat6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug lucid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827922 Title: On Tomcat6 shutdown web apps do not get shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomcat6/+bug/827922/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
