I've found that you cannot always rely on the shutdown script closing tomcat quickly. If you have a thread that is not properly managed maybe not at all.
In my restart scripts I find the PID of the tomcat process, run the shutdown script, sleep 10 seconds, test if the PID is still active and if so I kill it. It is then safe to run the startup script. That ought to work on any type of unix including Mac 10. Regards, Dave On Jul 15, 2010, at 2:47 PM, Jordan Michaels wrote: > Most restart scripts that I've seen for Tomcat are home-brewed.
