Thank you everyone for your responses. So, you are saying that the problem is not with Tomcat. Are you suggesting that the problem is with the server itself (Linux) or possibly with the JDK?
I tried adding the JAVA_OPT flags to the catalina.sh but that did not due the trick. I also tried adding the values you suggested to the user's environment, but I am still getting the errors on startup. Reinstalling wouldn't hurt to try I guess... It doesn't look like any process is behaving abnormally but then again, I am a newbie...

BTW: Have you looked what processes are running and how the memory usage is, before you try to start tomcat ?
