Review the startup script to determine the location of tomcat. :/etc/init.d> ll tomcat -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7038 2006-03-06 13:42 tomcat
:/etc/init.d> less tomcat Then scan for either tomcat_home or CATALINA_HOME ( depending on your version of tomcat). CATALINA_HOME=/opt/tomcat export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/java export JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.awt.headless=true There is a directory structure in tomcat home > Review that for the $tomcat_home/logs directory.

It requires tomcat5 and apache. Last Friday, we got everything working and all seemed well. This morning, we came in and found that tomcat wasn't running, so nothing was working. I have used the chkconfig tomcat5 on command to have tomcat automatically start, when the system is booted. However, it did not. We shut down all of our Linux guests on z/VM every night to do full-volume backups from the z/OS LPAR. Tomcat apparently did not restart when the system was re-started after the backup window. A simple "/etc/init.d/tomcat5 start" command starts tomcat easily, with no errors. How can I determine why it isn't starting automatically?
