alfresco-explorer not starting at tomcat restart

[elmuchacho]

Alfresco Community installed on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS x64
everything looks fine …
added support for german language … (still only works in Share)
and restarted tomcat …
after that only the shares are accessible (serverip:8080/share)
explorer can't get loaded (ERROR 404) (serverip:8080/alfresco)

alfresco.log shows this:

netstat -tapn | grep 8100 shows:

tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:8100          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      4996/soffice.bin

after a reboot everything works …

after a tomcat restart the error comes up …
but if i kill the soffice.bin process before restarting tomcat it works too

help needed

1) See the second link in my signature regarding "share works"
2) check for still running java processes from previous starts

[elmuchacho]

watched out out your tipps …

but everything is ok here …
my only prob is, that soffice's PID is not killed in a tomcat-restart …

I've created a batch to fix it for now:

/etc/init.d/tomcat6 stop
killall soffice
/etc/init.d/tomcat6  start‍‍‍

this wokors for now …
