I recently updated to 10.11 and now I cannot figure out how to restart Tomcat. I used to be able to just "sudo /etc/init.d/jamf.tomcat8 restart" that now returns a 0 and doesn't work. I tried a "sudo jamf-pro server restart" too. That says "successful" but actually didn't restart the service! For now I'm just rebooting.



Any ideas?

you can always unload & reload tomcat to stop & start as well



to stop tomcat



sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jamfsoftware.tomcat.plist





to start it back up



sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jamfsoftware.tomcat.plist





heres a knowledgebase article - https://www.jamf.com/jamf-nation/articles/117/starting-and-stopping-tomcat


Sorry should have said this was ubuntu. I have tried all the Linux commands in that KB.


What about the jamf-pro cli



jamf-pro server restart

Have you tried:



sudo service tomcat8 restart


What version of Tomcat is installed?


After doing some more digging...If I do a /etc/init.d/jamf.tomcat8 status it returns a 'not running'. However the site is up.


/usr/local/jss/tomcat/bin/version.sh returns



8.5.38.0



I have always used the jamfproinstaller.run files. Nothing fancy.


What happen if you restart ubuntu?
