It would be hard to identify your specific problem based on what you have
written here, but there some places you can start looking. First, check your
log files, specifically the 'catalina.out' file for startup and shutdown
errors. Typcially it takes tomcat 4-5 seconds to startup or shutdown on my
redhat 7.2 machine running java 1.4. Running a "tail -f <log.file>" will
allow you to see what's going on (where <log.file> is the logfile you're
watching).

Subject: tomcat startup problems on Linux box.
Hi All,
I am running Tomcat 4.0 on a Redhat 7.1 machine.
Everything is fine, except the startup/shutdown
scripts do not seem to work reliably.
I installed Tomcat from the RPM, so use the script
/etc/init.d/tomcat4 {shutdown|start}.
Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.
I can always restart the service with a reboot,
but don't want to have to do that.
Any ideas what could be going wrong?
Thanks,
Sean
