tomcat 5.0.16 does not start

[Michael Post]

Hello,

i am newbie on jsp-programming and tomcat.
Yesterday i do an reboot of my laptop since 3 days.
the last 3 days i programmed a jsp-site.
now tomcat does not start.

after reboot i had start manually tomcat with startup.sh.
no errors or warnings are printed at the shell so i think it will be 
great but if i put the url in the browser-address it does not run.
the netscape goes to the netscape.search as he do whether the page not 
found.

What can be the error? Where can i look?
At the tomcat installation/configuration files i doesnt have anything 
changed.
By checking the server.xml i get out that server have to run under port 
8080 so it is great.
