The latest version of the service manager (aka tomcatNw.exe) has the ability to generate a thread dump for Tomcat running as a service. If this isn't an option in the menu on your version, you can upgrade just this component by grabbing tomcat6.exe and tomcat6w.exe from the most recent 6.0 distro and renaming the files as needed.

Johnny, *read the question before posting*. The OP has already stated that they're running as a Windows service. No DOS box. To the OP: If you're on a recent enough JDK (1.6), use jstack. If you're on an older JDK, you might want to upgrade just to get this ability :-). http://blogs.sun.com/pcmreddy/entry/using_jstack_on_windows gives an overview of using jstack. http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/share/jstack.html is the Sun documentation for it. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
