HttpConnectionHandler startup Problems

Heres the problem:
I'm running Linux RH7.2 Server,tomcat 3.2.4, Java 1.4.0.
Running the startup script, it gets as far as setting up the "ContextManager: Adding context Ctx( /test )" but doesn't set up the ConnectionHandlers on 8080 and 8007. The server.xml config file hasn't been changed. It has worked once in more that 10 attempts and then I ran the "tomcat.sh run". Tried that option again but it failed to start the listeners.
Anyone got any ideas? This is a very frustrating problem.
Thanx in advance.
