We have apache server that talks over mod_jk to Jboss. When we shutdown Jboss we see 503 from Jboss as listed below. It looks like Jboss accepts new connection when it already undeployed the service. Is there something that I need to configure or do in Jboss so that it first stops taking new requests and then undeploys the service. I see the following of http code 503 on web server that came from Jboss: JBossWeb/2.0.0.GA_CP01 - Error report<!--H1 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:22px;} H2 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:16px;} H3 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:14px;} BODY {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:black;background-color:white;} B {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;} P {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;background:white;color:black;font-size:12px;}A {color : black;}A.name {color : black;}HR {color : #525D76;}--> <h1>HTTP Status 503 - This application is not currently available</h1>type Status reportmessage This application is not currently availabledescription The requested service (This application is not currently available) is not currently available.<h3>JBossWeb/2.0.0.GA_CP01</h3> View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4215505#...
