Description of problem: I have a server with Redhat OS of RH9. I have install sun jdk 1.5, Tomcat 5.0.2.8, and a J2EE application called MatrixOne. The application works fine when Tomcat is first started. In other words I can log into my application and navigate through it with no errors. But if I leave the application alone for a couple of hours, I can't even get to the Login page. The screen is just blank. Tomcat is still running but is not responding. I am running Tomcat on port 8090. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RH9 How reproducible: Does it everytime. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start the Tomcat server. 2. Log into my application. 3. Leave it alone for 2 hours. 4. Tomcat hangs and won't display the Login page. Actual results: Blank page. Looks like it is hanging. Looks like a port collision but this is the only thing running on 8090. Expected results: Tomcat server should keep running and display my application Login page. Additional info: Tried a few things but no luck. Adde LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.5.2 to catalina.sh but still no luck.
