#JVM timing options
#Java

3 different chronometers

There absolutely must be SOME way to detect WHY a #Java #Tomcat server would suddenly, after 6 years operation, spontaneously exit after 25-50 seconds of perfectly functional uptime and yet leave no #JVM hs_err crash file.
In catalina.sh debug, it logs the startup, sits idle, then the debugger reports 'disconnected'. This suggests it self-destructs, rather than an external kill - 9?

I am guessing no one here can confirm or deny this #java #JVM crash-on-keystore-decrypt which, if true, is a VERY SERIOUS BUG that could not be trusted in a production environment, and then has gone unfixed for decades? That does not seem very likely, does it?
As it is, keytool says there is nothing wrong with my keystore or its password, and watching the process launch I see after the init, it sits, idle, a few seconds later its Time value in top only increments the millisecs, and within a minute, it is gone, voom, not a trace in any logs as to why.
I do, truly, LOATH this technology. It is so fucking fragile; a life-sentence for the sr developers and sysadmins in production systems (that's why they often don't get holidays)

Nej, jag orkar inte sitta uppe och titta på den andra semi-finalen. Jag hoppas, lite, att Tjeckien vinner.
Men klart att Kanada vinner på hemmaplan.
Grattis, Juniorkronorna. #JVM

Just stumbled upon this: #Azul buys #Payara!
I'd say, that's an interesting perspective for #JakartaEE .

here's an Apache #Tomcat #Java thing I'd never heard before and although a tech gave it as an excuse, I do wonder if it is true. Apparently, if a Tomcat app receives an HTTPS request and it cannot decrypt the keystore, the entire JVM crashes. I've been using Tomcat since its debut and Java since it was Oak, and I ain't never heard of THIS one before. True?
Tomcat9 on Java8 if that matters.
