We had a similar problem. After running fine for a couple of years, Tomcat on one of our servers started to die every 2 or so hours with the dreaded SIGSEGV (0xb) errors. Since the identical versions of java as well as tomcat were running on our other machines and they had no problems, it would seem to point to a hardware problem on the crashing server. We had our hosting company swap the memory out of that machine and it looks good so far. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Fun-with-the-JVM-crashing.-tp21865004p23175427.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
