Hi Krishnakant, This works for me, especially if tomcat hangs sometimes and the shutdown.sh doesn't work in that case. I run this script once a day on tomcat 5.5.7.
#!/bin/bash kill -9 `cat /usr/local/java/tomcat/tomcat.pid` /etc/init.d/tomcat start The startscript is just a call to bin/startup.sh.
