tomcat install
 

Anyone know how or what to set the $BASEDIR to so that tomcat will startup?
TOMCAT 6.x btw.

Thanks for your help

i think shld b
export CATALINA_HOME=/*directory where ur tomcat install*

hope it will help and correct me if i was wrong :)

yes i had /bin in the env variables path ... copy paste error.

thanks

another snag
 

Catalina.out says this:
/opt/tomcat/apache-tomcat-7.0.25/bin/catalina.sh: line 389: /usr/bin//bin/java: No such file or directory
http://localhost:8080 fails also therefore i would assume tomcat is not running.

Thanks for the help folks ...

one more step ...
 

I was able to resolve the previous problem yet still cannot et tomcat splash screen on http://localhost:8080

Latest catalina.out error:
SEVERE: Begin event threw error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.tomcat.util.modeler.ManagedBean
at this
at that

then:
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.management.modelmbean.ModelMBeanNotificationBroadcaster not found in org.apache.catalina.loader.StandardClassLoader{urls=[file

Thanks for any help

the class loader cant find this >>> javax.management.modelmbean.ModelMBeanNotificationBroadcaster
could it be some .jar file needed is missing ? guess u need link or import that jar file or download it if u dun hav it

Got it! Thanks folks for the help.
Actually all I did was point to a different java version which apparently had the jar files it was looking for.
I have so many version of java maybe I pointed to the wrong path in JAVA_HOME.
Not really sure but it works now.

Thanks a ton ..

welcome :)
