I have Intellij IDEA 9.0.4 set up to start a tomcat webserver and deploy my project on to it. This has been working fine for some time but recently it has been failing silently. When I tell it to run, it compiles things as required, tells me compilation is successful and stops there. There are no error or warnings printed anywhere or in dialogs, but it does not start tomcat or even switch to the run tab. The same thing happens when I try it in JBoss (which I have never tried before - I've just recently attempted setting this up for the first time).
I have tried manually launching tomcat from its startup.bat file and this seems to work fine. I also tried downloading it again and that didn't help. I'm using version 5.5.30. I have not manually changed any relevant settings, but I did suffer a couple of power cuts recently and the problems seem to have been occurring since then, although I can't be sure of that correlation.
Does anyone know of something I could try/a configuration or log file I could check to see why this might be?

It looks like some bug in IDEA itself, probably caused by broken or incorrect configuration. Most likely there is corresponding exception in idea.log file.
It may help if you move/delete IDEA directories mentioned at the link above to start with all the default settings, then make vanilla Tomcat installation and configure it in IDEA, then try to create a new project and run it under Tomcat.
