It seemed that there was a jdk installation on the server under /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2
I ran ./java - version from the bin dir and got: java version "1.4.2" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-b28) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-b28, mixed mode) I ran grep to find where JAVA_HOME was being configured and got: /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf:# you could also override JAVA_HOME here /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf:JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java" so i changed /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf to JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2" Then, when I started Tomcat, even the Tomcat home page would not display. In the catalina.out log the following message was displayed: Due to new licensing guidelines mandated by the Apache Software Foundation Board of Directors, a JMX implementation can no longer be distributed with the Apache Tomcat binaries. As a result, you must download a JMX 1.2 implementation (such as the Sun Reference Implementation) and copy the JAR containing the API and implementation of the JMX specification to: ${catalina.home}/bin/jmx.jar It might be worth noting that this version of Tomcat was installed as part ot a Plesk add on pack (the OS is Fedora). Does anyone know what is going on here? I dont know how to verify whether this real Tomcat, or something else. --- "Caldarale, Charles R" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > From: Mon Cab [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Tomcat shutting down when instantiating > > javax.swing.ImageIcon on Fedora > > > > I have been advised to uninstall gnu java and replace it with Sun > SDK, > > which I am in the process of trying to figure out how to do. > > Until you have a real JRE installed, I think it's probably pointless > to > try to do much of anything. > > - Chuck > > > THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE > PROPRIETARY > MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
