Thanks Ognjen .

I need to set certain application specific enviornment variables ,pls suggest 
what is the best way of doing that.
eg:- configuring enviornment variable for LOG4j file path

eg:export path=/tc/amps/logs

does above entry will be sufficient for defining in setenv.sh

Thanks

Hi All,

    When i am declaring variables in my $CATALINA_BASE/bin/setenv.sh file , 
they are not getting exported :-

eg:- export NAME=e1
        export ID=22

But when i am declaring the same variables in $CATALINA_BASE/bin/startup.sh in 
following manner these are getting exported properly:-
eg:-
export CATALINA_OPTS="-DNAME=e1 -DID=22"

Kindly suggest what is the issue in this

When you say "varibles", do you mean "Java system properties" or "OS
environment variables"?

If you need to set Java system properties, use:

    export CATALINA_OPTS="-DNAME=e1 -DID=22"

If you want to export OS environment variables use:

    export NAME=e1
    export ID=22

In either way, refrain from modifying startup.sh, but use setenv.sh.

Regards,
Ognjen

Part of my setenv.sh:

JAVA_OPTS="-Dlog4j.home=$CATALINA_BASE/logs \
           -Dderby.system.home=$CATALINA_BASE/databases"
export JAVA_OPTS

Note that both of these could (should) probably go in CATALINA_OPTS.

. . . . just my two cents.
