try this

Code:

su -

/opt/IBMJava2-141/bin/java -version

does that report back the right java version?

also while actually logged in as root try to start tomcat

then maybe after its started

Code:

ps aux |grep tomcat

lsof -i |grep tomcat

let me know what you find

/opt/IBMJava2-141/bin/java -version : gives error no such directory
i did to find java version

Code:

 java -version

which gives :
java version "1.6.0_0"
IcedTea6 1.4 (fedora-7.b12.fc10-i386) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode)

Code:

ps aux |grep tomcat

gives
root 2905 0.0 0.1 4212 732 pts/0 S+ 20:37 0:00 grep tomcat

Code:

lsof -i |grep tomcat

gives nothing. i waited for a while to get nothing.
also sever is still not responding.

you have a jre_home variable defined somewhere that is wrong. have you created that variable, like in your /etc/profile or bash.rc file?

probably the easist will be to edit the startup script you are using. I don't have a tomcat install available right now so this is from memory, there should already be a JAVA_HOME or JRE_HOME variable defined, either in the startup script or the catalina.sh script (looking at your error again it looks like its line 314 in catalina.sh, check that first)

you need to find java first

Code:

whereis java

let me know if I can help more.

just to make sure we know where java is

Code:

ls -l /usr/bin/java

it is more than likely a symlink and that should give you the path to java

whatever the path, for example, if its /opt/java/bin/java

then make sure this gives info

Code:

/opt/java/bin/java -version

obviously replacing the above paths with your symlink path we found above

Code:

export JAVA_HOME=/opt/IBMJava2-141

there we go, taken from your /etc/profile, change that path to what we found above, the real path, not the link

then either log out and back in or

Code:

source /etc/profile

and try and start tomcat again.

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2008-12-08 13:36 /usr/bin/java -> /etc/alternatives/java
but

Code:

/opt/java/bin/java -version

gives
bash: /opt/java/bin/java: No such file or directory
then i tried

Code:

/etc/alternatives/java -version

which gives nothing.

i tried manualy & find java in " /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_11".

**jledhead** · 12-31-2008

I am guessing you have debian since you have /etc/alternatives

so to be sure

Code:

ls -l /etc/alternatives/java

which I am guessing will give you /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_11/bin/java

so in your catalina.sh put /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_11 for JAVA_HOME, if thats where /etc/alternatives/java points to

no! i m using fedora 10.

Code:

 ls -l/etc/alternatives/java

gives
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 2008-12-28 21:39 /etc/alternatives/java -> /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk/bin/java

**jledhead** · 12-31-2008

/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk

there you go, try adding that for your JAVA_HOME or JRE_HOME in catalina.sh and see if it works.
