And aslo plesase tell me how to fix the bug in my module? what is the procedure to follow?

Hi,
This method will terminate the currently running JVM, so your sevlet will
be terminated.

Don't do that.

While that's technically true, that's only because the entire server will be shut down.

Many production servers will run with a SecurityManager in place, in which case that operation is usually not permitted.

that doesn't make it a good idea to use it though
