What To Do When Red5 Freezes

If you get server deadlock (freeze) here is what you can do to help us fix the problem.

1. Ensure you are running the latest trunk version. This is so we can be sure the problem has not already been fixed.

2. Make sure you start the server using red5.sh or red5.bat. This wil ensure the server is running under its own pid.

3. When the server freezes run the jstack command. You can find the process id using ps -ef (linux), ps -aux (osx) or task manager (win).

jstack <pid>

4. Create a Trac ticket, attach the output from jstack, and describe your environment and application.
