$CATALINA_PID was set but the specified file does not exist. Is Tomcat running? Stop aborted.

Hi.

I change the logging.properties and I try to restart the tomcat server to try the new config.
I go in the bonita/bin folder and use the command “./shutdown.sh”.
It returns this error :
$CATALINA_PID was set but the specified file does not exist. Is Tomcat running? Stop aborted.

Anyone know what I can do ?

I found this :

But I don’t like to kill a process without knowing the consequencies.

See what happens when you change things? Trouble!

did you take a copy before making the changes? I hope so, otherwise just copy one from another install.

how many changes did you make? One at a time or many?

Killing Tomcat is OK, but not in production, the consequence is simple really - You have to rise from the dead, Resurrection if you wish…shame it’s not easter… :wink:

I had a copy of the initial file but the file was not the cause of the problem.
I just added a custom logger.

The problem was resolved by the server administrator. I don’t know what was the problem.
