If the only Java you have installed is 1.5, then it's fine as is. You may not need to set JAVA_HOME in this case, and can probably comment the references to it out, in your 'profile' file. > Try accessing a JSP; if it doesn't work, send the entire log output > seen in the shell you started in. @Minky: you're confusing some old instructions with your current install. The instructions said JRE_HOME should be set to an old, out of date version of Java. The original setting of /Library/Java/Home is probably fine. The instructions also say, confusingly, that the JRE is wrong if the Date examples values don't work. This is not true. If Tomcat starts up, the JRE is OK. The chances are, that you're trying to access some old examples too, instead, just try the '/examples/' url on your server. If an error occurs, tell us what URL you tried to access, and what URL you were on if you tried to click a link. The log files we want to see are in 'tomcat/logs/', you can use the 'more catalina.out' or 'tail catalina.out' (for example) commands in the shell to see their contents. Look inside the log files if there are any errors. p --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
