Tomcat Slow Startup

PointsWell

So I have been having a really hard time getting V8 and a new remote server to play nicely.

The most interesting being getting Tomcat and port 8080 working nicely.

I have finally managed to get my server to come up and interestingly it has taken Tomcat 596,133ms to get Aware to start the significant bulk of which is

Tomcat: Aug 09, 2017 12:52:50 AM org.apache.catalina.util.SessionIdGeneratorBase createSecureRandom
Tomcat: INFO: Creation of SecureRandom instance for session ID generation using [SHA1PRNG] took [585,873] milliseconds.

To save everyone the time that is such a small amount under 10 minutes that we will just call it 10 minutes.

Is there a reason why v8 should take so long to load up or is this just an initial deployment cost? I don't remember v7.1 taking anywhere near this amount of time to start.

Since for me, under both Windows Server and Mac it take about 10 seconds, and my Rachel is running it on a headless Linux box on AWS, and that takes < 10 seconds, what could be wrong with your install? I assume its NOT a permission issue (you are starting it as root, right?)

Ever think to reinstall it into a new folder and see if it works better?

So I forgot that I had updated all the JARs in my previous install viewtopic.php?p=28495#p28495

And I was running Java8

So I updated those and I am not sure if it's a combination of first time install/run or some *wittery on my part, but it seems to be running faster now.

So, I am curious, with the shiny new V8, do we still have old, outdated, dusty JAR files covered with cobwebs or did V do an update prior to release?

Funny you say that. I was thinking of the same today. But I doubt he did, because he didn't want to change anything else outside of the configurator, so for any bugs, he didn't have to take into considerations "New jars" as the cause of the bug.
