tomcat 5.0.28 linux ajp server startup crash

[Michael Kastner]

Hello,
configuration: tomcat 5.0.28
               redhat linux 7.1
               vm: 1.4.2_03
I'm trying to install tomcat 5.0. Everything works fine as far as using 
the startup and shutdown scripts provided.

However, when I try to start the server as a linux daemon with jsvc, the 
server crashes.

The catalina.out-log says:
<quote>
****************
Another exception has been detected while we were handling last error.
Dumping information about last error:
ERROR REPORT FILE = (N/A)
PC                = 0x400b0646
SIGNAL            = 11
FUNCTION NAME     = (N/A)
OFFSET            = 0xFFFFFFFF
LIBRARY NAME      = (N/A)
Please check ERROR REPORT FILE for further information, if there is any.
Good bye.
pure virtual method called
jsvc.exec error: Service exit with a return value of 255

But then again, if I remove the ajp connector entry in server.xml, jsvc 
and the tomcat just work fine.

If I try to start the server again after it has crashed once, the 
catalina.out-log says:

An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x400B0646
Function=(null)+0x400B0646
Library=/lib/i686/libc.so.6

NOTE: We are unable to locate the function name symbol for the error
      just occurred. Please refer to release documentation for possible
      reason and solutions.

Does anyone have a clue?
To me, this looks like a problem with jsvc and ajp.
I do have another instance of tomcat running on this system, but I've 
changed the port numbers.

Any hint or help is very much appreciated.
