You could have the servlet write a file that is then checked for by an external application. If the file exists then the external app could kill the tomcat.

I want to perform some checks on tomcat startup. If there is an error, I want to stop tomcat. I have defined a servlet and defined it as follow in the web.xml file in order to load it. <servlet> <description> </description> <display-name> StartUp</display-name> <servlet-name>StartUp</servlet-name> <servlet-class> com.webservice.global.StartUp</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>200</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>StartUp</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/StartUp</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> How can I stop the upcoming tomcat from the servlet?
