Thanks all for the replies. Turns out I needed to execute my "C" program with a "nohup" i.e.
$ nohup /usr/local/bin/ManageTomcat START Tomcat was only stopping after about 10 mins because that's when I logged out. Doh ! In the business app code I now execute the above and regular users can now start and stop Tomcat as needed. So far seems to be working out OK. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
