I am having problems getting the apr library discovered by Tomcat 8.5. This is what I tried:
1. I installed Tomcat-8.5 on RHEL-7. 2. As the native tomcat apr libraries wheren't available on RHEL I made them myself as instructed by http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/apr.html. After that the tomcat native apr libraries where present under '/usr/local/apr/lib'. 3. To get this library path included in java.library.path I tried: a. Create/modify $TOMCAT_BASE/bin/setenv.sh to include the following two lines: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/apr/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH After restarting tomcat the catalina log shows the message: 15-Jan-2018 13:03:31.778 INFO [main] org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener.lifecycleEvent The APR based Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal performance in production environments was not found on the java.library.path: [/usr/java/packages/lib/amd64:/usr/lib64:/lib64:/lib:/usr/lib] Apparantly the LD_LIBRARY_PATH isn't taken up by catalina? b. I also tried setting environment variables via the command prompt: #> TOMCAT_HOME=/opt/tomcat8; #> export TOMCAT_HOME #> TOMCAT_BASE=/var/lib/tomcat8/nodes/node1; #> export TOCAT_BASE #> LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBARAY_PATH:/usr/local/apr/lib; #> export LD_LIBRARY_PATH #> /opt/tomcat8/bin/startup.sh start But also that is giving the same AprLifecycleListener message? Could someone clarify what the right way is to get the apr libraries on the java.library.path of Tomcat8.5? Met vriendelijke groet, Jean Pierre Urkens System Architect Adv.
