I am installing Tomcat 5.5.27 on Windows XP as the servlet container for a Spring MVC app we will be hosting. I have installed many older versions of Tomcat with no problems but I'm stuck on this installation. In older Tomat versions when an application is started, in my case a Spring based a

Tomcat hangs, what to do to diagnose the problem?

Our Tomcat 4.1.30 instance seems to hang about once a week. i.e. the application is unresponsive and it can not be restarted from the management console. Tomcat must be restarted to restore functionality. There is nothing in the logs to indicate explicitly what is going on. The only logging t
