About a month ago, I started using ActiveMQ (v5.8.0) that is bundled with TomEE (v1.6.0), and i noticed that in the log too, when I stopped TomEE (to deploy new version of WAR file).
so, I searched google, and found the following, http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/Old-issue-Memory-leak-after-stop-web-application-in-Tomcat-td4653959.html which referenced the following, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3451 I found them both to be informative, and I think a fix was introduced in ActiveMQ 5.7.0, and the end result is that, even though your tomcat/tomee log mentions those possible memory leaks... if you examine your threads 'after' tomcat/tomee is stopped, then you will not see those threads any longer. At least, that is the case for me, since I'm using ActiveMQ 5.8.0 via TomEE+ 1.6.0. :) On Tue, Apr 16, 2013 at 5:22 PM, Leonardo Torres <leonardotorr...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi guys, > > I´m using AMQ 5.7.0 with Spring 3.0.1 and tomcat 7.0.19 as servlet > container.
