Hi,

Tomcat was running well and suddenly stop of working.

I am using tomcat5-5.5.23-0jpp.7.el5_2.1 on Centos 5.2


/etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf looks like as follows:
JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java"
CATALINA_HOME="/usr/share/tomcat5"
JASPER_HOME="/usr/share/tomcat5"
CATALINA_TMPDIR="/usr/share/tomcat5/temp"
JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS="/usr/share/tomcat5/common/endorsed"
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS
-Dcatalina.ext.dirs=$CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib:$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib"
TOMCAT_USER="tomcat"
SHUTDOWN_WAIT=30
CATALINA_PID=/var/run/tomcat5.pid


And  var/log/tomcat5/catalina.out has:

SEVERE: Begin event threw error
