[Bug 404097] [NEW] Tomcat 6 init script spawns 3 Tomcat instances

2009-07-24 Thread László Monda
Public bug reported:

I've recently used Tomcat on Intrepid and Jaunty.  On both of them I've
experienced the same problem: There are 3 Tomcat instances spawned by
the tomcat6 init script.

I'm aware that there are efforts to make the Tomcat init scripts more
developer friendly outlined by
http://ubuntuserver.wordpress.com/2008/09/01/tomcat-6-lands-in-intrepid/
for example, but I didn't install the tomcat6-user package so there
should only be one tomcat instance by default.

There is 1 instance owned by the tomcat6 user that does some real work
and 2 other instances owned by root that do nothing.

Doing a little investigation in the tomcat6 init script it seems that
the

$DAEMON -user $TOMCAT6_USER -cp $JSVC_CLASSPATH -outfile SYSLOG
-errfile SYSLOG -pidfile $CATALINA_PID $JAVA_OPTS $BOOTSTRAP_CLASS

command spawns all the instances which is strange to me because I'd
expect a much more sophisticated solution like checking the user home
dirs for tomcat-related configuration information from the init script
and starting the instances accordingly.

I have two questions:

1) Why does the init script behave the way it does?
2) Is it possible to change the default behaviour (using only one instance) or 
is it hardcoded?

Thanks!
