Hi,

I am new to Tomcat and would like ask a question regarding Thread Dumps.

My Environment all running in 1 server:

Tomcat 5.5 (running as Windows service) Total of 4 Tomcat instances load
balanced.
Windows 2003 64 bit
IIS 6.0 64 Bit

My question is, I would like to get thread dumps from the individual Tomcat
instances. I know that if I run Tomcat using command line, I should just
press Control+Esc on the CMD Window. Since its running as a service, can I
do a thread dump without stopping the current service and running the
instance on the command line?

I have seen tomcat logs folder and there are a lot of log files. Which log
file can I use/check to see the thread dumps? The environment just
implements a basic 5.5 configuration. Which logs file would be beneficial in
case I need to trobleshoot crashing instances and how do I configure them?

Regards,

Tomcat Novice
