Bug#507968: rotatelogs called from /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 keeps keeps stdout/stderr busy

[Nigel Tamplin]

Package: tomcat5.5
Version: 5.5.20-2etch3
Severity: normal


If you are logged into a debian system via ssh and start tomcat using

# /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 start

then logging out hangs ssh until the sshd process is killed.

This seems to be the same problem as #270248 which effects tomcat5
