Thanks, Chuck! I may try command-line startup.bat rather than a service to run this web application later when most people are off work and don't access this server.
This server does not set up any limit on system resource. When Tomcat is non-responsive, no complaint about running out memeory. I also paid extra attention on the log file. Whenever I re-start my tomcat server, I renamed the old log files. There are quite a few cases reported tomcat5 hangups. Did I miss an important place that traded in tomcat upgrade tricks?

How to retrieve a thread dump when it hangs in Windows? I don't know how to do that when the process is running as a service. For investigative purposes, you could try running it from a command prompt and enter ctrl-break when you get the hang; that should give you state and walkback info for each thread. Is it possible you're hitting some kind of quota limits? (Unusual to have that enabled in Windows, but you never know.) Hitting the max size on a log file perhaps? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
