Nothing has changed since it was last running (no windows updates/reboots etc). We rebooted the server yesterday when we were debugging this issue to see if a reboot would sort the issue out (but it did not). Its working fine on other servers with the same application software.

What operating system are you running? Based on my research (see my later comments below), it seems as though you are running Windows? I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit, and I recognized that my server restarted automatically this morning, most likely, because of automatic (Windows) updates. Was your server updated last night or this morning as well, because of automatic Windows updates? and did the windows update(s) impact your tomcat install/configuration? :) > > We currently have an issue whereby Tomcat 5.5.20 does not seem to > > stop > and start correctly.
