Dear Caroline,
We had a long discussion here in the list whether or not one
should call Tcl_Finalize() during cleanup. While i am not in
favor of commenting Tcl_Finalize() out on a unix-like os, i
think that the possible harm of doing so is limited. A crash
during finalize can hint to a problem sitting some else.
Concerning your crash-case: do you experience crashes on
every ns_shutdown?
i would recommend to upgrade to tcl 8.5.11 if possible.
best regards

Dear Caroline,
I use Aolserver on Windows Environments.
There the shutdown is always a problem if nsmain.c calls
Tcl_Finalize.
To avoid any problem I had to comment out this call:
*#ifndef*_WIN32
Tcl_Finalize();
*#endif*
I believe that if you do the same, that is you comment out
this call, you may avoid all race conditions you are
experiencing.
Please do notice that not calling Tcl_Finalize is not an
issue, cause the Aolserver process is anyhow about to die
and the proper cleaning of all allocated resources is
performed by the operating system.
Hope it helps,
Maurizio

We are shutting down aolserver via the control port using

any ideas as to how to resolve this?
Here's some more info...
