Every 2 weeks, Tomcat crashes with 500 errors. We now have more information about what happened the last time. Our configuration is: Tomcat 3.2.4 with Apache 1.3.20 and mod_jk Linux Debian, PIII 1 GHz, 512 Megs of RAM, Raid 1 Basically there is only one webapp on the server that has a daily load of 40 000 Hits or 5 000 page views. In the logs of Apache we've discovered that someone was using Htdig to index the site, basically making one call every 5 sec for 45 minutes. That's were and when tomcat crashes. So my questions, should I ugrade the server's hardware? Would Tomcat 4 series be more stable? or would it be just a tomcat configuration problem? Thanks in advance for your help and advice!
