title: I don't understand the results from #service tomcat6 status
body: <p>I'm trying to get Tomcat 6 running on Fedora 14. I'm quite new to this sort of thing, though I have managed to get Apache running before.</p>
  
  <p>I suspect I've made mistakes on some quite basic levels, because the test page (<a href="http://localhost:8080" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:8080</a>) can't be found.</p>
  
  <p>If I try to check the service's status, as root or as an ordinary user, this is what I get:</p>
  
  <pre><code>tomcat6 (pid) is running...[OK]  
  tomcat6 lockfile exists but process is not running [FAILED]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So I'm confused, because I seem to be being told that Tomcat 6 both is and isn't running. If anyone can tell me what this really is telling me, and where my suspicions should turn next, I'd be very grateful.</p>
  
  <p>There's no mention of any of this sort of thing in the docs.</p>
