Ever since we've upgraded to Tomcat 6 4 weeks ago, I've been fighting the following error on shutdown ...
Nov 23, 2010 4:42:18 PM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader clearReferencesThreads SEVERE: A web application appears to have started a thread named [MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager cleanup] but has failed to stop it. This is very likely to create a memory leak. We're using Tomcat 6.0.29 and it reproduces on both Windows and Linux. The application uses commons-httpclient-3.1. I've done so many different things to shut down the connection from the web application that I'm convinced that it is either something with the commons-httpclient-3.1 or Tomcat 6. Since this did not happen with Tomcat 5, I'm leaning towards Tomcat 6 problem. Please let me know if anyone has seen this before. Thanx!!!
