Hello,

To stop Tomcat use "/sbin/init.d/tomcat stop", if installed from the Internet Express package.

Hello!

If you can't kill it check if it zombie
if so you will need to reboot.

If 'kill -9 PID' doesn't kill a process, that
usually indicates that one or more of the
process's threads are in uninterruptible
kernel code. Check with 'ps alxmp PID' and
look for a "U" in the State column. If you
find one, the WCHAN column may be helpful if
the process is waiting on some kernel event.

If the PID is not accruing time then it's
likely hung in kernel code - often requiring
a system reboot to clear. You can either
force a crash or run dumpsys for help identifying
the problem.

Tomcat runs without a problem by using the internet express administration programs.
This is the only supported way - have a look into the documentation. Starting/Stopping is also done by the administration gui, but you can use also the scripts within /sbin/init.d.

I have had a lot of customers trying to configure and administrate the tomcat manually and failed. Using the gui works out of the box ;-)

Now i have configured and tomcat eaxmples are not coming up giving this error

"HTTP Status 500 -
