: [snip: discussion re: ways to restart Tomcat, preferably : through Tomcat itself]
Option #4: a listener that exists outside the Tomcat process, which calls the container start/stop scripts on command. I'm whipping up a prototype now: it's a basic socket listener that stores the path to the Tomcat script and calls it when a certain command is sent to the port. I'll have a link tomorrow... : NB As a relative novice to Tomcat it astonishs me that the Tomcat Manager does not provide the functionnality to reboot the server at runtime (taking in account that it services become unavailable during reboot time). It's *possible*, certainly. The source code's available for anyone to work it out and submit patches back to the Apache group. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
