Trouble Starting Tomcat

I'm trying to run Tomcat on a dumbed-down distor of Debian on a virtual 
linux I'm using to host my website.  I've downloaded and unzipped Tomcat 
5.5.9 and set JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME.  I start Tomcat by typing 
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh.

Strangely, Tomcat only succesfully starts about 20% of the time.  The 
log files don't shed much light on the problem.  I've tried rebooting my 
server and waiting several minutes before requesting my first page from 
Tomcat, but I can't determine any factor that makes Tomcat more likely 
to successfully start.

Here's the logs/catalina.out generated from a failed attempt to start 
Tomcat:

Jul 29, 2005 8:42:13 PM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol init
INFO: Initializing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-8080
Jul 29, 2005 8:42:13 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina load

And this one succeeded:

Jul 29, 2005 8:47:43 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start

Any ideas what's wrong?

RE: Newbie: Installing Admin on Tomcat

Posted by Steve Delaney <ye...@verizon.net>.
Assuming you are configured to use folder names when you unzip, doing so
will essentially create a directory structure that is parallel to the
default Tomcat installation (C:\Program Files\Apache Software
Foundation\Tomcat 5.5) Just unzip the Admin files into their own, separate
directory, then copy everything from its 'root' and overwrite the existing
TomCat installation directories...it really is that simple.

If you are comfortable enough and you know what you are doing, you can
extract straight into the TomCat Installation directories, but I'm more
comfortable taking the extra steps and then cut-and-paste.

I am running Tomcat 5.5.9 on XP.   I want to install  Admin.  I think I 
found the correct download here:

http://www.mirrormonster.com/apache.org/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.5.10-alpha/bin/j
akarta-tomcat-5.5.10-admin.zip


But how do I install it?   Waht directory should I unzip it to?  

The server is installed in:

D:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5

why dont you just go to the tomcat_home/bin dir and start using
"catalina run" command - what do u see when you try that??

Perhaps an issue with your random device or there is not enough entrophy in
your random device.
