Hi All

I am using Tomcat 6.0.18. It's running fine for past two months.
Suddenly it stops and i couldn't find any errors.

It would probably help if you mentioned on which platform this happens, and if it is a Windows system, if Tomcat is running as a Service or otherwise.


The messages i got in catalina .log are

Mar 16, 2010 5:48:00 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService stop

That looks like a nice orderly shutdown.

This is the second time i am facing this issue. There is no out of
memory errors.

Nobody can access my box and there is no way for explicit shutdown.

In what scenarios , tomcat will stop gracefully without any errors.

As far as I know, only when it is told, gracefully, to stop.
With an OOM or any other error, you would either not have any messages, or a lot of ugly ones.

But if it was running under Windows as a Service for instance, a "net stop Tomcat6" would be one way.
In that same case, a network sysadmin could also do this remotely.
Any local process connecting to port 8005 and writing the string "SHUTDOWN" to it would also do that. A web application running within Tomcat and doing a "system.exit()" /may/ also do that, though I don't know if then you would have a nice orderly shutdown as per above.
