Sorry about that last reply that had no message body..
Anyway, what about reliability, do you people who use the later versions of 5.0.x find it as reliable as 4.1.x?


Thanks,

Does anyone have a synopsis of reasons to move to or not to move to Tomcat 5 from tomcat 4?

I've seen various reasons that moving will be beneficial, including better session-replication support, and manager application improvements, but how does 5.0 stand up as far as reliability is concerned? I'm usually a little gun-shy at upgrading to anything until most of the bugs are worked out. It could cost me thousands of dollars a day to have my web apps be down.


First, you have to make sure your webapps run. You never know.

Then, TC 5 vs 4.1.29:
- is faster and generally more optimized
- has nice server monitoring
- has plenty of cleanups and small refactorings, to fix some of the more complex 4.1.x bugs
- has JSP 2.0 (you may not care, but JSPs are actually nice now)


Note: 4.1.29 and 5.0.16 use the same connectors, so reliability of the HTTP (or AJP) handling will be identical.
