java.library.path / Unsatisfied Link Error problem with Linux Tomcat 5.5

Using Tomcat 5.5 on Linux.
I've set my environment variable with export 
JAVA_OPTS='-Djava.library.path=/path/to/my/sharedobjectfolder'

After restarting tomcat and hitting my servlet (which depends on the .so 
file in the folder above) I get an UnsatisfiedLinkError no X found in 
java.library.path

I've looked in catalina.out and see a message that says that The Apache 
Tomcat Native library cannot be found on java.library.path: 
/path/to/my/sharedobjectfolder.   So it appears that Tomcat is using the 
path at least when it starts up.  

I've seen other Linux Tomcat users raising this same problem and not 
getting any answers.   
Within Eclipse I can run Tomcat and configure a VM parameter for 
java.library.path and my library is successfully found when the servlet 
runs so this issue only pertains to running tomcat directly from the 
startup scripts (e.g. /etc/init.d/tomcat start)

What could be wrong?

Hello,

I had a similar problem, did a try a chmod 755 ?

Re: java.library.path / Unsatisfied Link Error problem with Linux Tomcat 5.5

Posted by Konstantin Kolinko <kn...@gmail.com>.
I understand that if the .so library fails to load, it will also be
UnsatisfiedLinkError. I do not know (haven't tested), whether the
error text will be the same.

If some required system libraries cannot be found, the library does
not load. Those system libraries are loaded from LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

If you are using JDK 1.5 or later, you may print your environment in
Java with System.getenv() / System.getenv(String). See
http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t259893-systemgetenv.html


To be sure: in case you misprinted the value for "java.library.path",
or permissions problem, you may check if the file is actually
readable.

java.io.File f = new File(System.getProperty("java.library.path") +
File.separatorChar + "libLibName.so");

f.isFile();
f.canRead();
f.canExecute();

Its a single .so file so does that mean the  LD_LIBRARY_PATH stuff won't

Re: java.library.path / Unsatisfied Link Error problem with Linux Tomcat 5.5

Posted by Konstantin Kolinko <kn...@gmail.com>.
Does the native library consist of a single .so file, or there are several ones?

See the second "NOTE MEG" here:
http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/prop-java-library-path-n.html
It is about requirements for LD_LIBRARY_PATH if there are several libraries.


Does your printenv mention the value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH? Is there any
difference compared to when you are running Eclipse?

Re: java.library.path / Unsatisfied Link Error problem with Linux Tomcat 5.5

Posted by David Marshall <ma...@cs.umass.edu>.
Solved!

I found the source of the problem after following your links below.

Not only do you need to place the jar file in the tomcat/shared/lib 
folder,  you need to place the .so there and then adjust the 
java.library.path
on JAVA_OPTS to point there.   My .so was originally living in a 
directory under my user.   I also made sure that the .so is owned by the 
tomcat user and is set for execute privileges.  Not sure if all those 
things are strictly necessary, but certainly the placement of the .so in 
the shared/lib folder is.

Thanks very much to you all for continuing to generate ideas for me to 
try out!!!

Re: java.library.path / Unsatisfied Link Error problem with Linux Tomcat 5.5

Posted by David Marshall <ma...@cs.umass.edu>.
I have tried editing the tomcat scripts (catalina.sh) to set JAVA_OPTS 
in there and it didn't solve the problem.

Currently I set the JAVA_OPTS in my user .bashrc and .bash_profile.  So 
when I run the startup script the user is me ( I have to run the script with
sudo).  I'm verifying that JAVA_OPTS is set with a printenv before 
running tomcat start

Is your third-party jar placed into the shared libraries folder as it should be?

See
http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo#head-a4b7185ee95d0cf14a48f92c08d1eb66b561139d

See also
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jni/html/design.html
chapters 11.2.3 and 11.2.4.

Is the script file /etc/init.d/tomcat editable for you? E.g., to
define the JAVA_OPTS there? Or you are defining them in a profile file
of the user that is su-ed to run the tomcat?

Looking forward to your results with JSP.

Re: java.library.path / Unsatisfied Link Error problem with Linux Tomcat 5.5

Posted by David Marshall <ma...@cs.umass.edu>.
I'm not doing a System.loadLibrary.   The library is needed by a 
third-party jar that I am using.  SInce it works from within Eclipse I 
know that their jar and the shared object (.so file) work correctly 
together and that the shared object is indeed in the correct location on 
library path.   Its only when I deploy to the production version of 
Tomcat (on the same machine) that this stuff fails.  At that point I 
don't have Eclipse's VM parameter setting abilities available to me and 
the only place to put it is in JAVA_OPTS.  From the tomcat log file I 
can see that the java.library.path is set as intended.

I'll try your JSP idea just to be 100% the path is set correctly.

Re: java.library.path / Unsatisfied Link Error problem with Linux Tomcat 5.5

Posted by Filip Hanik - Dev Lists <de...@hanik.com>.
yeah, changing the error message wont help anyone, especially yourself :)

make sure that your -D parameter actually took in effect, and that you 
didn't put it in the wrong place. easiest way to check, have a JSP print 
out the system property for you

Filip :

Thanks.  I didn't literally mean X.   The library it won't load is 
called Netica.   I just changed it to X to be more general.   I hope I'm 
not just creating confusion for everyone.

thanks

I believe there is a
-Djava.awt.headless=true

or something like that, so that it doesn't try to load your X windows 
environment
