JBoss and Telnet

[martinspring]

Hi,
I can't get Jboss to stay alive when I exit a telnet session. I know this has been discussed a few times but I have tried all of the approaches discussed with no success.

I am using 'nohup' and running the process in the background using '&'. I have also tried redirecting Stdin.

This is one suggestion given by the forum:
nohup ./run_with_tomcat.sh ../log/serveroutput.log 2>&1 < /dev/null &

This didn't work for me.

I'm running JBoss-2.4.3_Tomcat-3.2.3 on Solaris 8.

Any suggestions??

Cheers, Martin

We encountered the same thing, same version (seems like any version) with Solaris 7. The JVM for some reason isn't ignoring the signal it receives when the user exits their session like it should.

We found that running the same as a normal user with sudo somehow bypassed the problem we were having.

You could also use the screen command if you keep having problems. Screen sets up a virtual text terminal, and you can attach and detach from it without affecting the running program.
