Steve and Charles asked a number of diagnostic questions, here are my answers:

Is there a stdout.log (or any other log files) in your environment? Might want to check those as well. Anything on the console window for the Tomcat process?
Steve wrote:
Check all logs, are there even incoming requests?
By default I believe catalina.out on Unix corresponds to the stdout.log and stderr.log files Tomcat uses in Windows. I also set verbosity="4" for the the Logger elements in server.xml in hopes of seeing more detail but didn't notice anything extra. I just had what I think is the default logging configuration, where only catalina.out and localhost_log.* appeared, and I'd already looked through them. I enabled the AccessLogValue so I'd see requests logged, and the localhost_access_log file is empty (zero bytes).
Can you get a thread dump and see where they're stuck?
That would be nice, something like pstack on Linux would be great, but I don't know what tools are available for Mac to do this. Charles wrote:
Have you restarted the two servers? Has this occurred more than once?
I've stopped and started Tomcat many times, trying various config tweaks (e.g. running on a different port). I had one of the servers rebooted yesterday, didn't seem to help. Charles wrote:
Is everything else on the two affected boxes working?
Steve wrote:
Seems like a network issue. 1. Try visiting the tomcat page from the server itself
At the moment I only have remote ssh access. I did try running a couple simple Java web gets, and they too seem to hang. Steve wrote:
2. Try pinging the server from another machine
/sbin/ping of the servers works OK. They're reachable on the network. I'm able to ssh to them. Steve wrote:
3. Try connecting to port 80 (or whatever port tomcat is listening on) with telnet from another machine and issuing a GET / request manually
Great idea! On one of the servers, this is what I see: % telnet <hostname> <port> Trying <ip>... Connected to <hostname>. Escape character is '^]'. GET / It hangs on the GET /. On the other server, it only gets as far as the "Trying <ip>...", it never gets to the "Connected to". If one of my nonresponsive servers actually "connected" what does that tell me? -- Joel [Online at http://jfkbits.blogspot.com] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
