Hi, I'm pulling my hair trying to install Tomcat 7.0.11 on my machine.
Here's my info at a glance: OS: Ubuntu 10.10 Tomcat version: 7.0.11 Tomcat main folder path: /usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.11/ JDK version (via the java -version command) : 1.6.0.24 JDK location: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun I'm running in to a problem trying to run Tomcat as a daemon via jsvc. Before I installed Tomcat I set $JAVA_HOME in: /etc/environment to: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun (logged out then back in, then used $echo $JAVA_HOME to verify it was set) Then I installed Tomcat, un-tar'd the commons-daemon-native.tar.gz, and "./configure" 'd it. It complained about JAVA_HOME not being set, so I had to "./configure" it again with: --with-java=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun Then used "make". Copied it to: usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0.11/bin .and try to execute: /bin/jsvc -cp ./bin/bootstrap.jar:./bin/tomcat-juli.jar \ -outfile ./logs/catalina.out -errfile ./logs/catalina.err \ org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap which gives me the dreaded "Cannot locate Java Home" error. It tried setting it in ~/.bashrc with the line: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun and logged out and back in. Still to no dice. I honestly don't know what to do and am at a loss right now. I think it might have to do with the jdk, but I installed it straight from the package manager. I'm pretty sure only the JDK comes with javac, and using javac -version produces 1.6.0_24. So. I'm pretty sure I have both the JRE and JDK Can someone, anyone, try to help me? I honestly don't know what to do anymore.
