Still not shutting down properly?

1. If the above results in an error, such as:

   Kill failed: $CATALINA_PID not set
   

   Add the following line of code to the top of your <JIRA-Installation-Directory>/bin/setenv.sh file (Standalone instance):

   CATALINA_PID="<Change this to your preferred location>/id.pid"
   export CATALINA_PID
   

   Tomcat will automatically write its process id to id.pid in your specified path and kill its process with the -force parameter.

2. In addition to the above, you can try a custom script that runs shutdown.sh first before forcing Tomcat to shutdown. This script will sleep 60 seconds then look inside ./id.pid to check if Tomcat is still running. If Tomcat is still running, it will issue a catalina.sh stop -force.
3. Also, here you can find a script which forces the application to shutdown and deletes the lock file in the application home directory. It will look inside ./id.pid for the process ID and run catalina.sh stop -force for that process.
   Both scripts need to be saved in <JIRA install>/bin and assume id.pid is located in the same location.
