Tomcat

I know very little about Tomcat

  1. 如何进入管理界面？

    在tomcat-dir/conf/tomcat-users.xml文件中为你要使用的登录账户赋予manager-gui角色的权限。

     <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="manager-gui"/>

  2. What’s the difference between catalina.sh and startup.sh/shutdown.sh under bin directory?

    startup.sh/shutdown.sh只是简单包了一下catalina.sh，实际还是调用的catalina.sh start/stop

  3. How to force the Tomcat to shutdown?

    经常碰到shutdown.sh不能真正地停掉Tomcat的情况，一般都是因为Tomcat无法正常关闭一些可能造成内存泄露的资源所导致的，像我这里有遇到过MQ相关的、Netty Thread pool相关的、Local thread相关的等等。说到底，还是因为我们自己没能正确地、及时地释放掉这些资源，毕竟一个初始状态的Tomcat，shutdown起来还是妥妥滴。

    但事已至此，该停还得停，目前的方式估计只有kill进程了。自己手动做有点儿麻烦，Tomcat自身其实提供了这个功能。

    在bin/setenv.sh文件(如果没有这个文件请创建)中添加一行

     CATALINA_PID="/tmp/catalina.pid"

    用于存储Tomcat的PID，路径和文件名可以根据自己的需求来定。以后想强行shutdown Tomcat就可以执行以下命令了。

     sh ./bin/catalina.sh stop 15 -force

    我这的输出如下

     ......
 Using CATALINA_PID:    /tmp/catalina.pid
 The stop command failed. Attempting to signal the process to stop through OS signal.
 Tomcat did not stop in time.
 To aid diagnostics a thread dump has been written to standard out.
 Killing Tomcat with the PID: 21958
 The Tomcat process has been killed.

    stop指令后面的参数的单位是秒，作用是给予Tomcat一定的时间来做清理工作，这个时间一到才会被强行shutdown。-force的作用不说也明了。

    关于CATALINA_PID的描述

    Path of the file which should contains the pid of the catalina startup java process, when start (fork) is used
