Unable to start Tomcat5.5

[Vijay Kiran Duvvuri]

Hi,

I've installed tomcat55 from www/tomcat55. I'm unable to start tomcat. The
log has the follwing error:
Apr 5, 2006 1:21:17 PM org.apache.catalina.connector.Connector pause
SEVERE: Protocol handler pause failed
java.lang.NullPointerException
        at org.apache.jk.server.JkMain.pause(JkMain.java:677)
        at org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler.pause(JkCoyoteHandler.java
:162)
        at org.apache.catalina.connector.Connector.pause(Connector.java

        at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina$CatalinaShutdownHook.run(
Catalina.java:629)


Here's my java environment:
[root at shire /usr/local/tomcat5.5/logs]# java -version
java version "1.5.0-p2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build
1.5.0-p2-root_01_apr_2006_18_01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-p2-root_01_apr_2006_18_01, mixed
mode)
[root at shire /usr/local/tomcat5.5/logs]# javac -version
javac 1.5.0-p2
javac: no source files
Usage: javac <options> <source files>


Please let me know how can I start the server, should I use some other
script or did I miss any changes in the server.xml ?
