[Wrapper-user] pid file not working???

[Dean H. <de...@xs...>]

I am starting to play with JSW for tomcat 3.3.7, 64 bit for fun.  when I run

./tomcat start  (tomcat was the wrappertest file)
my tomcat starts fine but then when running
./tomcat status
it says the pid file is stale yet my wrapper and tomcat are running(and if I
kill tomcat, the wrapper restarts it).  ie. my status and stop commands
completely don't work because of some pid problem.

Here is data from my last run...

pid file 4013

Then here is a typical ps...(4017 is tomcat and 4015 is wrapper, but no 4013
exists...that must have been the shell file pid or something).

root@builddragon:/opt/tomcat/
wrapper-linux-x86-64-3.3.7# ps -ef | grep tomcat
root      4015     1  0 22:18 ?        00:00:00

org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap TRUE 1 stop
root      4296 27756  0 22:26 pts/0    00:00:00 grep tomcat

NOTE: obvioulsy tomcat stop fails and tomcat status fails and deletes the
pid file which is wrong.  When I kill tomcat, wrapper still starts it up
fine but the pid file is all wrong.  Also, the 4017 command above seems odd
to me as it passes in all 7 arguments but the WrapperStartStopApp is
supposed to only pass in the 2 start args and the 3 stop args I would think
into the tomcat bootstrap process?

anyone have any idea what is going on?
thanks,
Dean
