If you can do it manually, from a log in session, but not automatically from startup or from cron, I'm 99% sure it's because environment variables like JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME are not being set for the startup and cron environments. Without those, you won't get anything. They're probably

I had a similar problem, and changed catalina.sh to do this at the start: source /etc/profile This was where I was setting CATALINA_HOME, and JAVA_HOME. When the script got run at startup, those vars were not yet set... Larry [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/22/03 10:20 AM Has anybody had a problem with

Howdy, We have some tomcat instances that restart nightly from a crontab, without a problem. They're all tomcat 4.0.6-LE on Solaris 2.8. None use apache as the front end. None run as root. Each runs as its own user, and the restart job is in that user's crontab. We've had no problems with

I suspect it has something to do with your environmental variables: Quite likely the java_home catalina_home has not been set at the time the script executes. When doing it from the console, as you are already logged on, it will work fine. You could try to export the variables just before running

Howdy, I can't share the exact script due to intellectual property law issues ;) But it's trivial, basically doing: export CATALINA_HOME=/foo/bar $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh sleep 60 $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh That's it. One of the problems I am worried about is that Tomcat isn't
