Hi Andre',

as you will, i am trying to get all the help i can get from any source,
reason i indicated the OS type and tomcat version and the log errors!!

No, you did not.
There are many versions of Tomcat 5.5.  The precise version is important.
There are many versions of RedHat Linux. The precise version is important.
And the log message which you mentioned is a not a Tomcat log message.
Errors specific to Tomcat are (under Linux, usually) in /var/log/* or 
/var/log/tomcat55/*.

The more /precise/ information you supply, the better/quicker you will get help.
It also saves a lot of time to the people trying to help, and that is important, as they are all busy people, who do this on their own time.


i could chance on someone who has used a similar combination and encountered
a similar problem.-

thanks for laboring to reply all the same - i will definitely try your
leads.

Cheers,

Simon

Hi.

I think that for this issue, you would get better/quicker help from a Linux
admin forum.

I am not trying to brush you off, but this looks like an issue having to do
with the way recent versions of Linux manage "services", rather than with
Tomcat itself.
The expertise of the people on this list is with Tomcat itself, rather than
with all the different ways in which different OS-es manage such "services".

This being said, if you have problems finding out why Tomcat died in the
first place, then this would be the right list to ask.
But then, provide :
- the Tomcat version (x.y.z)
- the Java version
- the (full) OS and version
- the lines in the Tomcat log files that are relevant
(this can be in /var/log/tomcat55/*.log, or /var/log/daemon, or similar
places (also depending on the OS))

Hi,

Some help from the forum - i am relatively new to administering Tomcat.

Apache Tomcat on one of our Redhat Linux servers won't start. The service
status says "tomcat55 dead but subsys locked"

You cannot kill the service because the PID is not locatable.


Anyone?
