I managed to eliminate most of the errors from my JNI setup, except for one. I get this error when Apache starts up :
[Wed May 28 19:17:33 2003] [notice] jni.validate() class= org/apache/jk/apr/TomcatStarter
[Wed May 28 19:17:33 2003] [error] Can't find class org/apache/jk/apr/TomcatStarter
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/jk/apr/TomcatStarter
[Wed May 28 19:17:33 2003] [notice] vm.detach() ok
I'm not sure where TomcatStarter is (i.e. which jar file), and why can't Apache find it ? I assume I will have to put the JAR file with TomcatStarted inside the CLASSPATH.
Other than that, a few errors in the documentation and the pre-packaged workers2.properties :
1. tomcat-jni.jar is inside $CATALINA_HOME/bin not $CATALINA_HOME/lib. This needs to be corrected inside the [jvm] section of workers2.properties
2. The documentation (several levels down and tucked away right at the end) says that for channelJni and UNIX sockets, you will need to add a couple more directories to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH inside the environment variables section of your Apache startup script. Well, the startup script says that it reads from a file called "envvars", but Apache does not seem to read that file. I had to execute "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$JAVA_HOME/jre/bin:$JAVA_HOME/jre/bin/classic" in order to get Apache to see this. Without doing this, you will get an error where Apache says that it is unable to connect to a JVM.
Now if I can just get Apache to see TomcatStarter, I will be able to sleep well tonight (not to mention watch "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" with a clear mind)!
