Hi,
I'm using APR 1.2.2 with Tomcat 5.5.15. Occasionally I need to restart the JVM, and so I have one of my servlets call System.exit(0). When using the APR libraries with tomcat, exiting the JVM in this manor leaves port 8009 in the FIN_WAIT2 state (see netstat man page). This prevents me from starting tomcat back up immediately. I receive an error saying that the tomcat port is already bound. If I remove the APR libraries so that tomcat does not use them, I no longer encounter this problem. Can someone help? I would like to use APR, but this problem prevents me. I have already posted this issue to the APR mailing list, and they say that the problem is with tomcat. Thanks. - Sean
