Tomcat starting problem

hi everyone
at first it looks as it is a very basic question
though not so..
i have installed tomcat nearly one month ago, on unix OS
everything went fine, it was working smoothly.
however, today when i tried to access the files i put in hte webapps directory previously , i couldn't.
the server dosen't work anymore. the reason is that when the http server of our campus restarted, all the 
environment variables set by users have been cancelled,
so i tried to set again according to the instructions on hte tomcat docs
as follows:
setenv TOMCAT_HOME  /user/staff/wapteam/tomcat
setenv JAVA_HOME  /usr/java1.2/
setenv CLASSPATH user/staff/wapteam/tomcat/bin
where tomcat is the directory that tomcat files reside
when i try to start the server by :
'startup.sh '   command
it gives the following error:
dbs[160] startup.sh
Using classpath: /user/staff/wapteam/tomcat=/lib/*:/user/staff/wapteam/tomcat/
./tomcat.sh: usr/java1.2=/bin/java: not found
what is wrong ?
can someone help me , please?
thanks in advance :)
cheers

Using classpath: /user/staff/wapteam/tomcat=/lib/*:/user/staff/wapteam/tomcat/
./tomcat.sh: usr/java1.2=/bin/java: not found

This should be simple.  Just go thru each directory in you classpath 
and make sure that those directories indeed exist as well as their content.
Also make sure that your ENV variables are set correctly.

Regards,
L

  Hi Luba,
  dbs[160] startup.sh  was not part of the error message
  it is the command i used to start the tomcat.
  the following 
  Using classpath: /user/staff/wapteam/tomcat=/lib/*:/user/staff/wapteam/tomcat/
  ./tomcat.sh: usr/java1.2=/bin/java: not found

  is the error message.
  any help ?
  thanks

    dbs[160] startup.sh

    This an OS error, not tomcat.  Unix admin should be able to
    help you

somehow, your environment variables are getting screwed up, there is an "="
sign to much in there

try to edit startup.sh directly or tomcat.sh and do the command inside the
shell script

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java1.2;

and that should do the trick.
