This is a update for this problem/solution.
After removing Java 1.5 + Tomcat 5.0, reinstalling Java 1.3 + Tomcat 3.3.1 on
last Monday, 1/23/2006, everything has been running fine by far.
I have certain confidence to conclude that different versions of Java and
Tomcat coexisting introduced the upgrade problem.
By the way, may I ask why you needed to install "J2EE 1.3" (see below)
also? I can understand the J2SE SDK, but am unsure why you needed J2EE
downloaded as well. I wonder if that is causing conflicts with whatever
TC itself provides.

Thank you all for your attention and help!

Thank you for your attention, Glen!
These 2 (good and buggy) production tomcat servers run different web applications on different physical machines. Their hardware and operation systems including Windows service packs are same. Tomcat configuration is very similar. The good tomcat server was brand new (new installed operating system, new web application) and started Java 5.0 + tomcat 5.0 at the very beginning. The buggy one started with Java1.3 + Tomcat 3.3.1 and had ran smoothly about 4 years.
Regarding the web application on the buggy tomcat 5.0 server. The source code remain the
same before and after the tomcat upgrade. The only change is to use the new java 1.5
compiler with option "-souce 1.4". Compiling is not a problem. Starting the
buggy tomcat 5.0 is not a problem. The only problem is hangup after some user access.
All possible changes were minimized during tomcat upgrade.
The buggy tomcat server was rolled back to Java 1.3 + tomcat 3.3.1 again last Friday. This rollback did not fix the problem. Yesterday (last Monday) I removed Java 1.5 + Tomcat 5.0 completely. JDK 1.3 + J2EE 1.3 were re-installed. At this point, everything was rolled back to the state before tomcat upgrade.
This buggy tomcat server has run okay by far (< 24 hours), but is too early to
say it is fixed. If it can behave until the end of this week, I may dare to say it
is fixed and the problem is caused by the upgrade. Maybe the co-existence of Java
1.3 and 1.5. Maybe co-existence of Tomcat 3.3 and 5.0. Maybe ...

First of all, upgraded to the version I have ever tested. Tomcat 5.0 has been
running well on my another production server about one year. At that
installation time, Tomcat 5.0 was the latest. Moreover, having all productions
share the same Java + tomcat versions is one of my agendas to ease the
development and maintenance.
Oh! Now I understand. Thanks for the explanation and sorry I couldn't
help you that much with your problem. It is strange that Tomcat 5.0 has
been running well for a year on one server but not the new one. BTW,
are you running different or the same web applications on the
good-for-one-year 5.0 server and the buggy new 5.0 one? I wonder if the
source of the problem is with the applications that the buggy TC is
running rather than TC itself.
