Cannot find daemon loader

           Summary: Cannot find daemon loader
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.27
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: bugdatabase.tomcat.jgombos@spamgourmet.com


There are multiple defects.  Some are likely to be defects with the Gentoo 
distribution of Tomcat5, and at least one of the defects (documented below) is 
in Catalina.  For the history of installation issues, see the following two 
URLS:

I spotted another report of this issue in an Apache mailing list:

  http://www.mail-archive.com/commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org/msg30457.html

Skipping the installation issues (because they may be in the scope of the 
Gentoo folks), I will go right to the problem that results following a manual 
install as per the Tomcat documentation.

Execution of:

    cd $CATALINA_HOME
    ./bin/jsvc -Djava.endorsed.dirs=./common/endorsed -cp ./bin/bootstrap.jar \
        -outfile ./logs/catalina.out -errfile ./logs/catalina.err \
        org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap

Results in:

  jsvc.exec error: Cannot find daemon loader 
    org/apache/commons/daemon/support/DaemonLoader
  jsvc.exec error: Service exit with a return value of 1

I see no reason why jsvc would not be able to find the Daemon Loader.  The JAR 
file is in the $CATALINA_HOME/bin folder, and looking at the table of contents 
reveals the class that jsvc cannot find.

Also, it may still be worthwhile to look at the Gentoo installation issues, 
because the ./configure script that comes packaged with Tomcat fails when 
uname -m returns "ppc64".
