tomcat8 is running, but no pid file

I recently started working on a project that is running in an AWS instance using tomcat. I need to restart tomcat every once in a while, and I was told by their original owners that the following command would do the trick

$ sudo service tomcat8 restart

Unfortunately it doesn't work, and I get the following error:

tomcat8 running, but no pid file^[[60G[^[[0;31mFAILED^[[0;39m]
Starting tomcat8: ^[[60G[^[[0;31mFAILED^[[0;39m]

More than just finding a workaround to restart it with other commands, I would like to know if there's a way to make that command work properly 'cause there must be something off and I don't seem to find what is it.

If you happen to run over the same issue, freeing up space might solve it, it did for me.
