Tomcat 9 server hangs up

We are migrating from Tomcat 7 to Tomcat 9. For a certain page, when we reload the page continuously multiples time, server hangs up and request are shown in backlog waiting to be executed. It takes around 5 - 8 minutes before the request is processed and then the page is displayed.
Here is server.xml configuration:

I found out the issue and fix it. Since, i was migrating Tomcat from 7 to Tomcat 9, some of the Tomcat 9 configuration were obsolete and i needed to update them. The issue was in jndi configuration, maxActive property was changed to maxTotal and updated the driverClassName.
Here is the updated Tomcat 9 changes:

how to deploy multiple war in tomcat docker container?

I have an application which has a server for authentication and web application to perform activities.
Currently, I have created two images for server.war and webapp.war I want to deploy both wars in a single container with single tomcat instance running inside a container, how can that be done?
container image : Tomcat container where I want to deploy two wars.
I tried to update server.xml but it's not working.

I was doing wrong configuration but I found the correct way to configure, below is the solution.
Here is the configuration to deploy two war files in docker images:
I created a folder named foo in the main directory of apache tomcat(8.5) and used following configuration for server and Dockerfile to create image.

Tomcat 8.5 [HTTPUtils] Domain name [http://localhost:8080] isn't allowed

I was trying to setup my local tomcat server for my application development; I deployed my vendor product WAR in the tomcat and it was succesful.
But when I tried to open the login page, getting error page and below error is logged tomcat client log.

what additional domain setup we need to do for Tomcat to work; the WAR is currently deployed and working Websphere 8.5.

Tomcat ThreadPool is not working

I am experimenting with Tomcat with different configurations. Enabled Executor config in Service.xml as following
<!--The connectors can use a shared executor, you can define one or more named thread pools-->
<Executor name="tomcatThreadPool" namePrefix="catalina-exec-"
maxQueueSize="1" daemon="false"
maxThreads="1" minSpareThreads="1"/>
And intentionally added thread sleep in Get method as below:
#Path("/contact")
#Slf4j
#Singleton
public class ContactDropboxService {
private ContactDAO contactDAO;
private NotificationPublisher notificationPublisher;
public ContactDropboxService() {
ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("Spring-Module.xml");
this.contactDAO = (ContactDAO) context.getBean("contactDAO");
this.notificationPublisher = (NotificationPublisher) context.getBean("notificationPublisher");
}
#GET
public String greet() throws InterruptedException {
log.info("Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! {}", Thread.currentThread().getId());
Thread.sleep(10000);
return "Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services";
}
}
I was expecting that a second request will be dropped if it arrives before first is handled. In logs I checked all the requests are getting handled parallelaly.
INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-10] (ContactDropboxService.java:38) - Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! 27
INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-2] (ContactDropboxService.java:38) - Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! 19
INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-5] (ContactDropboxService.java:38) - Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! 22
INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-3] (ContactDropboxService.java:38) - Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! 20
INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-4] (ContactDropboxService.java:38) - Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! 21
INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-6] (ContactDropboxService.java:38) - Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! 23
INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-7] (ContactDropboxService.java:38) - Welcome to InBhiwadi contact services! 24
Please help me to understand, why is ThreadPool(Executor) not working?

Tomcat Array Index out of bounds exception

I am seeing the following error when I try to start tomcat. Seems like it runs okay with eclipse, but it doesn't run in Netbeans. I have tried setting maxHttpHeaderSize=8192 and maxPostSize="-1". But that didn't seem to help. I think my response body is the culprit here and not the header size. Is there a way to configure the size of the response body ?
I am running Tomcat 6.0.41 on JDK 1.7 on Windows. I have Compared the server.xml files on Eclipse and Netbeans and there doesn't seem to be any obvious difference between them. Also, the JVM arguments are similar.
I know I am probably being vague here, but I don't know where to start with debugging this issue. So, any help is appreciated.
