George,
Thanks for the lead to the startup script. That was exactly it, in our
configuration our CATALINA_BASE is /usr/share/tomcat7 and that is what was
triggering the random port assignment:
if [ "$CATALINA_HOME" != "/usr/share/tomcat" -a "$RETVAL" -eq "0" ]; then
# Create a tomcat directory if it doesn't exist
makeHomeDir
# If CATALINA_HOME doesn't exist modify port number so that
# multiple instances don't interfere with each other
findFreePorts
sed -i -e "s/8005/${randomPort1}/g" -e "s/8080/${CONNECTOR_PORT}/g"
\
-e "s/8009/${randomPort2}/g" -e "s/8443/${randomPort3}/g"
