Tomcat6 failed to restart

Question

I have tomcat6 installed with Geoserver 7 on it.

After trying to restart error appears in catalina.out

What can I do with it?

It's sad, but openjdk-6-jre-headless become incompatible with new tzdata-java.

So, I need to update to version 7

I ran into this same exception randomly on a server (probably think due to a hardware problem). Reinstalling openjdk-6-jre-headless fixed it. So thanks for that! – Brandon Barkley Mar 19 '20 at 12:02
