HTTP 404 Error - Catalina won't start

[d_clark]

Hello,

I'm currently having trouble getting Tomcat/Catalina to start. I was making a startup script simply calling ../alfresco.sh start, however, now I can't get Catalina to start, resulting in HTTP 404 errors when browsing to the alfresco web client. The default Tomcat homepage DOES load, however. It says port 8080 is in use, however, I don't have any services using that port already. Any thoughts? Logs below.
More details…

Mac OS X 10.4.11, JRE 1.5, Tomcat 5.5.23

I've checked and killed any extra java processes before starting with no avail.

Thank you.

Could you search for an alfresco.log file, which may contain more detailed failure information.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike,

I took at look at the log. The last entry was from when I had a successful startup this morning. Other than that, the tomcat error must get thrown before Alfresco even starts logging itself.

I did check the tomcat manager app, and Alfresco is installed, but not running. UPon trying to start it from that app, I got the following in the Catalina log.

These may be related to the tomcat manager app, however….
