RE: Installing Tomcat 6.0.9 on Sun Solaris
Oh I see. I did gunzip the file and run tar on it. The reason I was confused though is because the instructions on the Tomcat site said I need to run autoconf from the jsvc-src directory, but I could not find any autoconf file anywhere. Therefore, I figured I unzipped it wrong or something. I'm running Solaris 10, yes.

I believe you're right Chuck. When I think about it, there is no need for a CATALINA_BASE. The reason I wanted to set one is because the previous two installations of Tomcat (4.0.5 and 5.5.9) both had one, so I figured it might be there for ease of use, security purposes, or something of the sort. However, I am the only one who will be using Tomcat 6.0.9, so there really is no point to it. Anyway, I believe all my questions are now cleared up (unless of course I need to set up a CATALINA_BASE and have questions about the information from the server logs). I have Tomcat 6.0.9 running properly, and it can compile my JDK1.5 code and everything!

Re: Installing Tomcat 6.0.9 on Sun Solaris
Hi thanks for the reply. I cleared my CATALINA_BASE variable so it would take on the default $CATALINA_HOME variable. I then moved my conf lib logs temp webapps work directories back into $CATALINA_HOME. Then, I used startup.sh, and it WORKED! Hooray! I can shutdown and startup the server when I do not have a $CATALINA_BASE. When I try to setup a $CATALINA_BASE by moving the aforementioned directories to $HOME/dtomcat, I get the error I posted in my original message. Is there anything I missed when setting up $CATALINA_BASE? I moved the conf, lib, logs, temp, work, and webapp directories to $CATALINA_BASE. Should I have copied them, therefore leaving a copy in $CATALINA_HOME? After that, I use startup.sh and supply the -Dcatalina.base=$HOME/dtomcat argument to startup.sh, and it says it's using the appropriate directory. However, startup.sh does not start the server apparently; I cannot connect to it from a browser, and I get the error I posted when I try to use shutdown.sh. There's obviously something I missed. Do I need to edit some files or something?

Installing Tomcat 6.0.9 on Sun Solaris
Hi all, I was having some more problems with some older Tomcat installations, so I decided to upgrade to the newest release and download it fresh this time instead of using an existing build from awhile back. I've been trying to set up Tomcat 6.0.9, but I'm afraid I'm having some problems. I've been following the installation instructions in RUNNING.txt. Basically, it tells me to download the binary distribution, unpack it, make sure JDK1.5 or greater is installed, and run the server. I also need to set up a CATALINA_BASE, After downloading the binary distribution, I uncompressed it to $CATALINA_HOME. Then, I created a new directory, and set that to be $CATALINA_BASE. Then, I took the appropriate directories out of $CATALINA_HOME and put them in $CATALINA_BASE, according to RUNNING.txt. Then, I started up the server and set it to use $CATALINA_BASE with "$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh -Dcatalina.base=$HOME/dtomcat". This gave me the following output: Using CATALINA_BASE: /u/dgresh/dtomcat Using CATALINA_HOME: /u/dgresh/apache-tomcat-6.0.9 Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /u/dgresh/dtomcat/temp Using JRE_HOME: /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_06 and then gave me a command prompt. So I navigated to http://localhost:8080, and I got a connection failed error. I searched through the documentation, and found that an issue with ports might be causing the problem. I edited the $CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml file, and changed the server port from 8005 to 8007, and the connector port from 8080 to 8082. Then, I navigated to http://localhost:8082, and got the same connection failed error. Furthermore, I'm running into problems when I go to shutdown Tomcat. When I run $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh, I get the following output: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:251) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.init(Bootstrap.java:215) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:390) I'm not sure what that means, even after a web search. There's one more thing that is confusing me. RUNNING.txt says that all I need to do to install Tomcat is unpack it to a directory, have JDK1.5+ installed, and startup the server. However, the setup instructions at the Tomcat website have something about running it as a UNIX daemon (http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/setup.html). I'm not exactly sure if this is needed, but I tried to follow the instructions, so I downloaded the commnons-daemon file and placed the necessary files in $CATALINA_HOME/bin. However, I cannot run "tar xvfz jsvc.tar.gz", as the -z argument is not being recognized. The directions said GNU TAR was needed, so I searched the web for that, but I came to a confusing site that said something about FTPing the GNU TAR files, and I didn't know where to go from there. So is there simply something I missed about configuring Tomcat for proper use on my localhost? Or is this a problem with my Tomcat installation? If you could offer any advice, I'd be very appreciative.
