Hello,
I had email a while ago asking for help with some errors I was getting
with an application that I inherited which was working OK but was
getting a few errors after moving it to a new server. I am not a tomcat
person in that I do not know a lot about it but do know my way around a
server pretty well. I did manage to fix a number of the issues with help
from a few generous souls but now am receiving a database connection error:
Error initializing sub-systems:
Please check the following:
1. That your machine has a valid connection to
jdbc:mysql://localhost/exodus_exodus Using:
Username: xxxxxx
Password: xxxxx
Driver: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
I have verified that the user/pass is correct via a command-line log in.
So, then checking the
/home/xxxxx/public_html/WEB-INF/conf/environment.xml, it all looks
correct as far as the database info is concerned. I do notice that
things like the <path> in this file contains entries that are wrong. For
example,
<systemLogFolder>/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/exodus/WEB-INF/logs/</systemLogFolder>
should actually be
<systemLogFolder>/usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/webapps/exodus/WEB-INF/logs/</systemLogFolder>except
that the exodus folder does not exist under webapps. This
misconfiguration is consistent with all the entries under <path>. The
entire exodus app is actually under the web root so I am not sure what
if anything I would have to do here. Should I simply create these
folders under /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/webapps/ ??
As I really do not have a load of experience with tomcat, I wold
appreciate any insight anyone can give be as to how I might go about
repairing this error.
Cheers,
Dave
