Tomcat is running as service,but I can't visit the jsp pages just as it's not running,I restart the service for tomcat,it's ok now.Why Tomcat like that?

I can say for certain that tomcat is definately stable.
I cant say for sure because I dont know about your configuration but there are times when you need to restart tomcat in order to get the service to update itself if you have made changes. I dont think this should happen with jsp pages but I really cant be sure. I think there is also a way to setup tomcat so that it wont need restarts if you add another servlet. I think this involves something called the "invoker"
I hope that helps or reasures you somewhat

You can add and remove entire "web applications" without stopping tomcat using the management functions. Supposedl you can even deploy a new application from a WAR file but I have not tried it.

I'm assuming you have IIS as the primary web server - how did you configure the connector?
Is it just JSP or are servlets affected too?
I would like to follow up on this since I am trying to set up exactly the same configuration.

Do the log files show anything of interest?
How about the task manager - does it show the process consuming CPU cycles - total memory use?

I have what I think is a similar problem. A web site using Tomcat 4.1, JSDK 1.4, and mySQL.
There is a logon JSP for administration use and
after a period of time/ or number of uses it fails. The catalina.out log only shows SQL error
but nothing more. The database seems to connect ok and most of the time not a problem, just every so often it fails. In order to get it to function again after it fails, I have to shutdown tomcat and then re-start, then it is fine for awhile. The site was developed by another person now no longer available. I am a real newbie, but am trying to read all I can about Tomcat and hope to
be able to get this corrected... If anyone has some thoughts that would point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate the help.
Thanks in advance, Larry
PS the OS is Linux 8
