Killing WOA Processes
This is one of the most vexing question. How to kill a runaway WebObjects application? The ps command does not give you any information as it lists the process simply as java.
Try to use lsof. You need to run it with admin privileges so the command is

Alternatively you can have a script:
#!/bin/sh
#
# portslay: kill the task listening on the specified TCP port
#
kill -9 `lsof -i tcp:$1 | grep LISTEN | awk '{ print $2;}'`
You will also have to do a sudo for the script to run.
For those stuck with the CLOSE_WAIT problems try this:

run it by doing:

I have written a small script that uses lsof to find the process by looking at some specific file that is opened, the returned processes can then be used to kill the process
#!/bin/sh
if [ $# = 0 ]; then
echo ""
echo " usage: $0 javaname(s)"
echo " The current processes that containt javaname will be displayed"
echo " eg: $0 JavaMonitor.woa"
echo ""
exit 1

# echo $OS
case ${OS} in

echo "no lsof command available on this OS!";

${LSOF} -c java | grep -i $i | awk '{print $2}' | sort -u;
done
