Tomcat service stops frequently after MS09-061 patch

[chetan khadye]

Hi,

We are facing an issue with the microsoft patch. We applied the patch
MS09-061 on our production and development environment which is
running on Windows server 2003. After the patch applied the tomcat
server stops responding the http requests after every 15 20 minutes.
The restarting of tomcat server seems resolving the issue.

We have removed the patch from our development environment to check if
the tomcat responds normally, and its working fine now.

Since the patch is critical it's mandatory to apply it. Kindly advice
what can be causing the issue of tomcat not responding the http
requests.

Please let me know if any more details are required.

Regards,
Chetan K.

This patch is for the .NET framework and "should not" have broken
anything Tomcat related. Tomcat does not use .NET and neither, I'm
pretty sure, does any Java Virtual Machine on Microsoft Windows.

That certainly is strange.

Can you re-apply the patch in development and produce some log files? Is
the Tomcat process gracefully stopping (it will write log statements
about attempting to shut itself down) or does the process just die? Are
there errors in any log file that you can see?

Java version?
Tomcat version?
Is it standalone or behind Apache httpd? If behind httpd, httpd version and
connector details?
Any exceptions in the Tomcat log files?
If you take a thread dump once the server has stalled, where are the threads
stalled?

This information *might* be enough to start debugging the issue.

The unknown patch, whatever it does, is evidently causing the problem.
Microsoft will have more details about what it does.

Unless I employ my patent-pending "Internet Telepathy" I think a *lot*
more details are required.

e.g. Tomcat version, JVM version, what the patch is for... etc
