It didn't - as the excerpt from the Windows service log you posted clearly shows. There is nothing to be read there about Tomcat "crashing" but just about Tomcat being stopped "unexpectedly" ("unerwartet"). This means nothing more than that the Windows service manager didn't expect Tomcat to stop because it (the service manager) wasn't told to stop Tomcat. As David already explained, Tomcat's log shows that it was stopped using Tomcat-specific measures (probably by accessing the shutdown port) which the Windows service manager knows nothing about. > I know I didn't shut it down, I was sleeping, as I assume everyone else > was who had access to the system...... I'd try to find out what happened on your machine at midnight. The scheduled tasks might be something obvious to check.
