Re: error starting tomcat

[David Smith]

There's probably a reference to it or a reference to a symlink in your 
server.xml's <GlobalNamingResources>...</GlobalNamingResources> 
section.  Tomcat5 should own this file or be a member of a group that 
owns it and has read access to it.

It is not complaining about the port number.
I've seen the error if your not root. It's not the same.
Starting tomcat manual as root gives me the same error.
Sorry wrong answer ;-)

You need to be root when you start tomcat in order to bind to port 80 
(or any
port < 1024).  The jsvc will then lower it's user status to 
tomcat_user ( or
whatever user you have configured).

Hi,
I have the following error starting tomcat and don't know how to solve
it.

I have the standard server.xml file. But then removed lots of the
comments.
User authentication is defined as :
    <Resource name="UserDatabase" auth="Container"
               type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase"
        description="User database that can be updated and saved">
     </Resource>
     <ResourceParams name="UserDatabase">
       <parameter>

<value>org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory</value>
       </parameter>
       <parameter>
         <name>pathname</name>
         <value>conf/tomcat-users.xml</value>

     </ResourceParams>
      <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm"
                  debug="0" resourceName="UserDatabase"/>
I don't know where :  /usr/local/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml.new  is
defined.
I'm using redhat fedore core 1,  java 1.4.2_04
the tomcat-users.xml file is owned by root : root
Tomcat is started at boot time by using jsvc where the tomcat user is
tomcat5.
Can one of you tell me what's wrong?
