You have to set JAVA_HOME var to the directory where the entire java installation is, for ex. /usr/jdk1.5.0 I don't know where that could be on Mac os x but do some searching. > Thanks in advance, > > Antonio. > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
