FusionReactor Technote - FRS-219

Symptoms

When using the Apache-supplied catalina script to stop Tomcat, the script appears to complete normally, but Tomcat continues to run. This can become obvious when the script is used to start the server again, when several port-clashes occur.

Analysis

The catalina script connects to the Java VM and instructs the VM to shut down. However, there are three FusionReactor threads which are running in non-daemon mode, which do not stop and inhibit the VM shutdown process.
