Checking if Tomcat is up

[Abhijat Thakur <at...@bdnacorp.com>]

Is it pssible to check intemittently through my java application if my Tomcat server is up ? What can i check for to see if my Tomcat server is up. The scenaruio is that if something happens to Tomcat where my it hangs up i should ring my application down, for that i have to check intermittently if my Tomcat is up. What is it that i can check to see if Tomcat is up ?

thanks

I'd either go for a simple test - like seeing if you can reach
port 8005 (the shutdown port).

If you want a fuller test, then maybe download a jsp or similar.
