Tomcat 4.1 no go for my production env.

[Martin Algesten <ma...@taglab.com>]

Just following up on my thoughts wether Tomcat 4.1 is ready for 
production or not. Yesterday and today I tried to roll one preview site 
out on our existing server infrastructure... and so far it created 
complete havoc.

Oddly enough I'm running a Coda replicated file system on my production 
servers and that is where the Tomcat home is. Now Coda is a semi-dodgy 
piece of software (it's a love-hate thing) and you need to be gentle 
with it. Tomcat 3.3.1 is fine running in this way, but 4.1 so far 
crashed the whole coda file system both yesterday and today.

This is not a complaint about Tomcat 4, rather an observation that it 
doesn't seem to behave in this environment. I will start investigating 
why this is. My suspicion there is something about Coda having AFS file 
semantics rather than unix or windows ones.
