Hi,
I recently installed Tomcat 5 following these excellent instructions using the exact same versions that are referenced in the instructions: http://www.meritonlinesystems.com/docs/apache_tomcat_redhat.html When I run the install command I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat/bin]# ./startup.sh The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly This environment variable is needed to run this program NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE >From the instructions I did the following: ************************** Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable, by modifying /etc/profile so it includes the following: JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2" export JAVA_HOME /etc/profile is run at startup and when a user logs into the system, so you will need to log out and log back in for JAVA_HOME to be defined. exit su - However, when I check the [EMAIL PROTECTED] [~]# echo $JAVA_HOME /usr/local/jdk [EMAIL PROTECTED] [~]# ******************************* it appears that "JAVA_HOME" still points to the wrong directory. I have repeatedly tried to reset the JAVA_HOME variable and searched for a solution on Google & MARC but I am hitting a wall. -- From the root level the Java (j2sdk1.4.2) is installed in the /usr/java directory /usr/local/jdk -- Tomcat is installed in the /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat directory. OS: CentOS I am installing this on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) at a hosted facility. Any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Paul
