You should have a java process running 'org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat'
when Tomcat is running. For example, when I run the 'ps' command I see the
following:
/usr/local/java/IBMJava2-13/jre/bin/exe/java -Xms64M -Xmx128M
-Djava.protocol.handler.pkgs=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol
-Dtomcat.home=/usr/local/java/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.2
org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat
This is all on one line, of course, and I have to use 'ps awx --cols=250'
(Linux) in order to see the entire command line.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
--jeff
