Thanks, the log files helped me figure it out (I was pointing at the wrong
directory for JAVA_HOME).

Thanks again,

Scott

RedHat Linux 7.1, Tomcat 4.0 RC1

2001-09-13 Thread Scott Brinker 

I'm having trouble getting Tomcat 4.0 RC1 to start under RedHat Linux 7.1. I
have installed the latest release in a directory in /usr/local, installed
JSE 1.3.1_01 in /usr/java, and set up JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME
environment variables.

When I execute ./startup.sh, I get these messages:

  Using CLASSPATH ...
  Using CATALINA_BASE ...
  Using CATALINA_HOME ...

And then it returns me to the command prompt. No Tomcat process appears to
be running, and no other messages are displayed.

I should also mention that I've done this as the root account to make sure
there weren't permission problems.

Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Many thanks,

Re: Oracle JDBC in CLASSPATH for Tomcat 4.0

Ah, I figured it out: I had to rename the file from "classes12.zip" to
"classes12.jar" in the root /lib directory. (Apparently Tomcat appends only
.jar's to its classpath, not .zip's, and must not pay attention to the
system CLASSPATH variable.)

Thanks John, Srinivas,

Re: Oracle JDBC in CLASSPATH for Tomcat 4.0

2001-07-17 Thread Scott Brinker 

Alas, it's still not finding it. I now have the classes12.zip in the
following locations:

  /jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b5/lib
  /jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b5/common/lib
  /jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b5/webapps/test/WEB-INF/lib

...(the latter being my web app), in addition to the CLASSPATH environment
variable. Any other thoughts?

Thanks,

Scott

puts everything under /lib in classpath autmoatically when it starts up .

Oracle JDBC in CLASSPATH for Tomcat 4.0

2001-07-17 Thread Scott Brinker 

I am trying to load the Oracle 8.1.7 thin client JDBC driver in a simple
servlet under Tomcat 4.0-b5. However, the following line:

  Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");

...keeps generating a ClassNotFoundException. I am running on Windows 2000,
and I have verified that the CLASSPATH environment variable is:

  D:\oracle\ora81\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip

...which is where the JDBC driver is. (I can write a stand-alone Java
application that loads that driver just fine, so I know it is where I think
it is.)

For what it's worth, I'm also running under JDK 1.3.1.

Do I have to do something special to have my web app recognize the system
CLASSPATH? Is there some place else I need to explicitly define it?

Many thanks,

Scott
