I posted more content to the bug: to answer to your questions, no tomcat
processes are running. The result of netstat is

[root at deafeng3 tomcat5]# netstat -an | grep '8080'
tcp        0      0 :::8080                     :::*                        LISTEN 

If I understand the above correctly, something is indeed listening on port 8080...but what? 
That looks like an IPv6 type listener, but I don't know IPv6 well. I also grepped on '80' 
to list processes running on any 80xx port. See the bug report.

Any suggestions? Clearly, I started some process that is interfering with tomcat5.
