Thanks for the hint with jstack, I should have at least tested it in debug mode - my bad.
According to jstack the destroy method is called correctly. The problem seems to be the logging during shutdown instead. Nothing is logged after the shutdown is triggered and so this lead to my wrong assumption. To be precise, I mean the log files in /var/log/tomcat6 . -- 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
