Hi chris,
are you sure about this CLASSPATH-thing?
a few lines above your quoted line catalina.sh sources/includes
setclasspath.sh which zaps CLASSPATH ("First clear out the user classpath")
I just remembered it because i had to comment this line "CLASSPATH="
to use my externally set environment variable. This happened before i
got cured using the CLASSPATH env at all :-)
@all: this is no advice for patching tomcat (startup) scripts!
kind regards,
Markus
