tomcat wont start up on linux machine
- by David
hi, im new to linux but after spending the day i have got linux running. installed java and tomcat. my goal is host my app with this linux box i've just set up. i know it all works fine from my windows based machine but it is my laptop so i'm planning this as my dedicated server.
following many many forums i've now got tomcat 7 installed. however i cannot get it to start.
changing to the tomcat directory and "./startup.sh" i get output
Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local.tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME: usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/
Using CLASSPATH: /usr/local/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/local.tomcat/bin/c\tomcat-juli.jar
thats the end of theoutput.
however localhost:8080 is not up.
and in the tomcat log file is the error "eval: 1: usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun//bin/java: not found"
hopfully there is some expert here who can help me with this problem. please note that im a novice when it comes to linux. thankyou
oh and my version of linux is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx
