Thank you for everyone's responses. I tried downloading and installing the JDK 5 Update 6 version, but it still would not run, after following the install steps on the tomcat.apache.org website (gave me the same message as before in the catalina log)
["This release of Apache Tomcat was packaged to run on J2SE 5.0 or later. It can be run on earlier JVMs by downloading and installing a compatibility package from the Apache Tomcat binary download page."] So I installed a different version of Tomcat (from our SLES CD's) - jakarta-tomcat-5.0.19-29.1, which I managed to start up (the daemon at least). Now I must just figure out how to connect to it from my web browser on my Windows PC, to Tomcat on the Linux server. (http://hostname:8081 does not work) Thanks again for the previous replies. Dirk ======================================================================== == Your running IBM JDK which is mostly 1.4 compatible. Go to java.sun.com and download the install for JDK 5.0 http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp You want the one that says: Download JDK 5.0 Update 6 That will get you the JDK you need. Then you are good to install Tomcat. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/index.html and RTFM =o) Chris Berthold IT Systems Analyst Commercial Refrigerator Door Company 941 . 371 . 8110 x 205 > The information on this e-mail including any attachments relates to the official business of DigiCare (Pty) Ltd.
