java - Tomcat 6 web app won't start -

i'm using tomcat version 6.0.29 jvm version 1.6.0_51-b11-456-11m4508 apple inc. running on mac os x version 10.8.4 x86_64 os architecture. because using old customer environment.

i'm using idea ant build web application , build script running fine, except first time ran script because got build errors. running script again makes project compile without issues.

but web application won't start. when trying start tomcat web application manager, tomcat says: fail - application @ context path /grgy not started , catalina.out writes:

in catalina.sh have modified following follows:

if [ -z "$logging_manager" ];   java_opts="$java_opts -djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.classloaderlogmanager -dfile.encoding=utf-8 -xms256m -xmx2048m -xx:maxpermsize=512m -djava.awt.headless=true" else    java_opts="$java_opts $logging_manager -dfile.encoding=utf-8 -xms256m -xmx2048m -xx:maxpermsize=512m -djava.awt.headless=true" fi 

any ideas seems problem , how should web app , running again?

kind regards, jonas

apparently things weren't complicated after all...

i read log catalina.out again , noticed thread waiting jamwikilistener. in tomcat web application manager, jamwiki starting correctly when tried use app received ugly error message saying app wasn't working (of course i'm paraphrasing).

so removed jamwiki app web app folder , things working correctly again.
