Set System properties at TC startup

2003-06-19 Thread christian . schuster




Hi list,

I have several web applications running. All of them have some properties
equal. They are also important in order to the web applications working
appropriatly. Is there a way at TC startup time to set these properties
(just Strings) and in case the properties are not found to let TC
immediately crash.

I am not really an expert in this and there may be a totally different way
how to do this.

Regards,

Christian Schuster

Assuming that you are using TC 4.x (TC 3.3 has a different way of doing
this), then you create a file called setenv.(bat|sh) (of course, bat for
Windows, sh for *nix).  In this file you set the environment variable
CATALINA_OPTS to define the system properties that you need.

Yes I am running Tomcat 4.1.18.

Where does this file need to be located that TC is reading it at startup?
Just somewhere along the classpath?

Yup. I recently committed the FAQ to jakarta-tomcat-site. For the short term, 
I will probably try to make a mass update once a week or every other week 
based on questions, gaps, (and my own knowledge of the solution). I already 
have a list of updates I want to make. (I save a lot of potential responses 
to a faqqy folder in my email client and wade through it occasionally)

The new faq is now at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/

I hope to update the sourceforge version soon
