Those 2 last months I went into a very weird problem.I couldn't make jstat ans jps work anymore with tomcat...jps couldn't find the process, neither jstat (pid not found) ! I wanted to supervise correctly my new Confluence and Jira installations, so I couldn't just accept it !
My first thought was this was related to my unbuntu installation, as I am not very used with this linux distribution and had to learn how to move from open-jdk to the sun jdk with the "alternatives" system.
I asked atlassian for some help in the investifation of this problem after some unsuccessful tries (after some supposition like a vm issue, having tried on another linux system, confirmed it work on open-jdk jstat version...).
We spend some time to figure out what was the real problem : this is a bug in jdk1.6u23 and u24 ! It has been finally fixed in u25... Does that mean that sun... hoops... oracle doesn't make any regression test with its java tools ? Anyway I can now safely put my favorite tools in place to optimize my jvm installation and supervise it to get alerts in case of memory troubles (yes, some people do that ;) ), and add this blog post in case someone goes in the same trooble as I couldn't find anything related to this on the net!
