Chuck,

The first core that I saw was in $CATALINA_HOME/bin as expected. The next crash produced one at root. I thought this might have been because there is a cron process that runs a shell script in the /usr/local/tomcat_wars directory that restarts Tomcat (using shutdown.sh and startup.sh in the $CATALINA_HOME/bin directory) at 1:00AM so I just never paid it much attention.

Red herrings, green herrings, blue herrings... who knows anymore?

Thanks,

Carl

(I switched this comment to Carl's original thread, since that's where it applies.)

the core files on my systems were in several directories

I wonder if the above is a clue to what's going on. I've always seen core files written to the current directory of the dying process, never scattered around arbitrarily. Tomcat's current directory should be $CATALINA_HOME/bin; if one of the webapps is changing the current directory, could that be contributing to the failure by confusing other code or the JVM? (Or is this just another of the many red herrings?)
