Example text

On all other operating systems, use the kill command to tell the kernel to kill the process(es) like this: $ kill -KILL 7. sh Usually, the shutdown process goes smoothly and Tomcat JVMs shut down quickly. But, because there are situations when they don’t, the above procedure should always suffice. We realize this is not a very convenient way to restart Tomcat; however, if you try to cut corners here, you will likely not always shut down Tomcat and get errors due to the new Tomcat JVM bumping into the existing Tomcat JVM when you go to start it again.

In this case, you don’t want files from one instance clashing with files from another instance. To have one Tomcat distribution installed and run two or more Tomcat JVM instances that are configured differently, you must keep each JVM instance’s files separate. During normal usage of Tomcat, the server reads configuration from the conf and webapps directories and writes files to the logs, temp, and work directories. Also, some jar files and class files may need to be loaded from the shared, server, and common directory trees.

Read the init script source and you’ll see what we mean. So, it is up to the Solaris administrator to ensure (by hand) that the restart actually occurred. Restarting the Tomcat Windows Service If you have Tomcat running as a Windows Service, you can restart it from the control panel. Either right-click on the service and select Restart from the pop-up menu or, if it exists on your version of Windows, use the Restart button near the upperright corner of the dialog box (see Figure 1-6). Be sure to check your logfiles for any startup problems.
