In addition to the logger statements, I've always add 5-10 second sleeps
in the tomcat start up scripts so that things are truly started by the
time they run.  You can also do a search for debug= in the server.xml
and up the debugging output to see if you get any more useful
information.

I'd also make sure that all instances of tomcat are listening on
different ports/interfaces.
