i resolved the problem with the "Can't load server.xml" message. all i had to do was append $CATALINA_HOME to the classpath...the Tomcat.sh script didn't have it in there.
CLASSPATH=\ $JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar:\ $DAEMON_HOME/dist/commons-daemon.jar:\ $CATALINA_HOME/bin/bootstrap.jar:\ $CATALINA_HOME ------------------------------- i following the instructions with jsvc included with tomcat, but when i run the Tomcat.sh script i get the following in my $CATALINA_HOME\logs\catalina.out Can 't load server.xml Can 't load server.xml Jan 2, 2004 12:14:04 AM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start INFO: Server startup in 0 ms any ideas? thanks, james --------------------------------------------------------- You need to use jsvc to do this. The source ships in the $CATALINA_HOME/bin/jsvc.tar.gz file. You need to unpack it and build it for your system. The documentation is at: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/daemon/jsvc.html.
