I would expect both to be served: one request was served immediately (maxThreads=1) and one was queued (acceptCount=1). When the first request was completed, the second one came out of the queue and was served. If you had acceptCount="0" (which may or may not be legal for your TCP/IP stack) or you had sent 10 simultaneous connections, I would have expected at least some of them to be dropped with a connection error (assuming that they really are simultaneous and the response time is long enough to cover any variance in the connection-attempt time). Please provide more details about your test setup. > I was expecting that one would get a network failure! Woah, you thought you'd take-down your network?

Are you sure Tomcat started properly? Tomcat 6+ uses an Executor whether you configure one of not, and the StandardThreadExecutor simply passes the maxThreads value off to Java's ThreadPoolExecutor, which will throw IllegalArgumentException if maxThreads is 0. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEAREIAAYFAlD26OcACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCgLQCffw+xQflDLr4Ps8vYkQkcXUYw EZ0AoKU7bMkUJkmx21IgaRkNpQVV20dh =9xBW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
