Hi Alexey, yes it does (see message thread and different logs). i've checked with "set -x" and even the actual process call with "ps" and truss/strace. same problem if I call java directly - okay it does not log to catalina.out but to stdout...
Somewhere the road while watching the truss output the open-syscalls use the wrong/truncated directory. thanks and kind regards, Markus Alexey Solofnenko wrote: > Try running "bash -x catalina.sh run" to see if Java is started > correctly.
