Consecutive SSH are not working

Hi this is for a friend...

My friend is trying to start and stop servers on remote machine using SSH. the problem here is when he runs the commands...

Code:
ssh -t username@remoteserver sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 stop

This works fine and stops the server. but

Code:
ssh -t username@remoteserver sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 start

This says connection closed.

Any help is appreciated... M a newbie so please bear with me!!!

No obvious reason the second one shouldn't work. What happens when he logs in interactively and tries it?

did you any log before "connection to ..... closed." ?

"Connection closed" will be seen anyway with -t option as it opens a pseudo-tty. However the command should have got executed successfully.

What does the following command say

ssh -t username@remoteserver "sudo bash -x /etc/init.d/tomcat6 start"
