Default Now a PAE problem

I attempted to use the PAE kernel,
CentOS 5 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5PAE to enable the memory above 4GB, I have 6GB on the server.
After booting with it tomcat fails to start.
Boot back to CentOS 5 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 and no problems.

Do I need to reconfigure tomcat to be able to run with the PAE kernel?

Quote:
# yum info kernel-PAE

Available Packages
Name : kernel-PAE

Summary: The Linux kernel compiled for PAE capable machines.

Description:
This package includes a version of the Linux kernel with support for up to
64GB of high memory. It requires a CPU with Physical Address Extensions (PAE).

The non-PAE kernel can only address up to 4GB of memory.

Install the kernel-PAE package if your machine has more than 4GB of memory.

Thanks James
