weblogic.Admin SHUTDOWN - problem

[Chinmay Bedarkar]

Hello all,
I am using weblogic6.1 as my application server on hp-ux. when I
shutdown the weblogic server using the command

java weblogic.Admin -url 127.0.0.1:80 SHUTDOWN -username abc -password abc

,the java process on the server should also stop. But it does not
happen everytime, ie, sometimes it does not stops the java process
(when you do a ps on java, it shows that java is running, and then i have to
manually kill it).
Can anybody give me a solution for this?

1) You may try to upgrade to the latest SP or version of the server - this problem may be fixed already.
2) Contact BEA support (please check this: http://www.viewtier.com/newsgroups/thread.jspa?threadID=4&tstart=0)
3) Write a shell script that tries to shutdown weblogic gracefully using SHUTDOWN, waits for some time and then issues kill.
