Hi. In my web application, I have a thread running in the background that sends emails to the user when some event occurs. However, yesterday it stopped sending emails. I've checked catalina.out log and there was no exception in there, apparently it was all ok. So, I've restarted tomcat and things went back to normal, which means the thread started to send emails again.
My question is: why did this happen, why was necessary to restart tomcat to get things right? Regards, Luís Amorim
