which jdk are you using and how was the memory during that time? It might be a memory issue and the system is heavily swapping, causing the server to almost halt?
Just throwing random ideas out. -----Original Message----- From: Bob Swerdlow [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 5:12 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: TOMCAT STOPS! Hi, Eric - That is what I thought, too (I was not the one to see lynx working, but I'll try it myself the next time). Unfortunately, I don't know whether it was to localHost or www.emergentmusic.com (that's the URL we're having trouble with). I'll asked the engineer who did that testing, but he's out for a while. tracert showed a complete trace. Did not try telnet. What is interesting is that we have another server running another copy of Tomcat for development. The firewall is set up to forward port 8080 to that server and port 80 to the main server (the one that failed). Accessing the other server works fine, so DNS does not seem to be the issue and the firewall seems to be up. Thanks for your help! - Bob ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dahnke, Eric" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Tomcat Users List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 4:53 PM Subject: RE: TOMCAT STOPS! > > If this is true: > > If we use lynx on the server running Tomcat, we CAN access the > pages. > > then Tomcat is not your problem, and it is more likely a networking / > firewall issue.
