If we don't restart, the users cannot access the application. It is java based (I think) and they blame it on the SQL server (of course) which is an entirely different server. I am looking in the tomcat log files from days past. But I'm not sure which log files contain the errors I should be looking for. Is it the catalina files or the stderr files?
