Description Andrey Polozov 2007-07-22 10:28:48 UTC
Looks like an old bug in startup scripts, which has been fixed around 5.5.20,
has been reintroduced (or hasn't been ported) in 6.0.X:
CATALINA_OPTS variable is used for stopping, while it's supposed to be used for
starting only:
------------------
elif [ "$1" = "stop" ] ; then

  shift
  FORCE=0
  if [ "$1" = "-force" ]; then
    shift
    FORCE=1
  fi

  "$_RUNJAVA" $JAVA_OPTS $CATALINA_OPTS \
    -Djava.endorsed.dirs="$JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS" -classpath "$CLASSPATH" \
    -Dcatalina.base="$CATALINA_BASE" \
    -Dcatalina.home="$CATALINA_HOME" \
    -Djava.io.tmpdir="$CATALINA_TMPDIR" \
    org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap "$@" stop
------------------

This makes impossible using JMX agent/jconsole as well as other tools which rely
on socket listening.

I'm not sure if catalina.bat does the same thing...

I guess the latest 5.5.X version of catalina.sh (and probably .bat) shall be
merged into 6.6.X tree...

Thanks for reporting this.
Fixed in revision r558523 for TC 6.0.15.
Also ported to trunk and 5.0.x.
