Although Tigase XMPP Server can be terminated by ending the process, it is preferred and recommended to use it’s own shutdown scripts instead. Not only does this allow for a proper purge of Tigase form the system, but allows for all shutdown functions to operate, such as ammending logs and completing statistics. To trigger a shutdown of Tigase server, the following command can be used from the tigase directory:
./scripts/tigase.sh stop
You may specify the config file if you want, but it will make no differences
This will:
Upon shutdown, statistics for the server’s runtime will be appended to the log file. For a description of the statsitics and what they mean, refer to the Statistics Description portion of the documentation.
To aid with troubleshooting purposes, the full stacktrace will be dumped to a seperate file located at $serverdir/logs/threads-dump.log.# Stacktrace logs will follow the same log file numbering scheme described in Log file description.
This feature is enabled by default, however you may disable this by adding the following to your init.properties file:
--shutdown-thread-dump=false
