How do I set up and run Tomcat 5.5.23 on Cetos5.3
Hello, I do not know much on setting up tomcat on linux. I am new to both.
However, I ran yum install tomcat5 to install tomcat from centos5 built. I
could see the version with the below command.
# /etc/init.d/tomcat5 version
Server version: Apache Tomcat/5.5.23
Server built: Jul 27 2009 05:23:29
Server number: 5.5.23.0
OS Name: Linux
OS Version: 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5
Architecture: i386
JVM Version: 1.6.0-b09
JVM Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
I need help to proceed further. Please guide me how to set-up TOMCAT on
centos5? The base installation, I think is located in /user/share/tomcat5
and I see java in /usr/bin/jvm
Please help.

As David K pointed out, you shouldn't be able to.
> The file is showing Server port="8005" and <Connector port="8080'>
8005 is the shutdown port, accessible only from 127.0.0.1, so it doesn't need to be made available from outside. Port 8080 is the one that handles HTTP requests, as a brief review of the doc or even the comments in server.xml would tell you.

i am sorry, it is tomcat5.conf

Please elaborate on that statement; server.xml can't set tomcat_home or catalina_home to anything - if they exist at all, such environment variables must be established before being used in server.xml.
> This is why tomcat runs from /usr/share/tomcat5.

I really, really hate these 3rd-party distributions that scatter files all over the place and then attempt to put things back together with symlinks; this adds nothing but confusion.
> Where in the installation should be tomcat index file located?
There's no "tomcat [sic] index file"; there can be a welcome file for each deployed webapp, and the default webapp must be named ROOT (case sensitive).
In a standard Tomcat distribution, the default application is located in the ROOT directory under the <Host> appBase directory; so there should be the following under /var/lib/tomcat5/webapps:
ROOT/
index.jsp
WEB-INF/
web.xml
lib/
catalina-root.jar
Since you're running a 3rd-party Tomcat, you'll need to get support from whoever packaged it - or install a real Tomcat from tomcat.apache.org so we can provide better help for you.

In server.xml file, the tomcat_home which is probably called catlina_home is
set to the root of where tomcat is installed. i.e. /usr/share/tomcat5 ; This
is why tomcat runs from /usr/share/tomcat5.
There is one BIN directory in this folder and other symlinks as below. Where
in the installation should be tomcat index file located?
drwxr-xr-x 2 tomcat root 4096 Mar 10 09:27 bin
lrwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat root 23 Mar 10 09:27 common -> /var/lib/tomcat5/common

Which could be why you get a blank page. However, your ps output shows Tomcat running from /usr/share/tomcat5, not /var/lib/tomcat5; are they symlinked together? If not, why do you think /var/lib/tomcat5 is important?
The applications distributed with Tomcat are normally under the <Host> appBase directory; since you're using a mangled 3rd-party distribution of Tomcat, they may have been removed, or located somewhere else - in which case you'll need help from whoever mangled the distribution. If you use a standard Tomcat distribution from tomcat.apache.org, we could provide more and better help.
The Tomcat startup script you're using also adds a lot of junk to the initial classpath - that's another potential problem. Make sure you do not have the CLASSPATH variable set when starting Tomcat.

Shows a blank page. I was expecting some sort of tomcat/apache page.
/var/lib/tomcat5/webapps is empty. where is tomcat index file located?

Ok, that /might/ be Tomcat, and it /might/ be the Tomcat we are talking
about. But it is not sure yet, because it seems that there may be more
running on that system than you (and us) know about.
teswreq,
I am going to try to help you, but you have to follow the steps and do
what you are told, ok ?
First, enter this command :
netstat -anp | grep LISTEN | grep 6980
you should see the same line as above, and a couple of additional ones.
Paste these lines here, in your next message.
Then, enter this :
ps -ef | grep 6980
and also paste the result here.
Then, navigate to the "conf" directory of Tomcat (we do not know where
the CentOS Tomcat package puts that one, so you have to find it
yourself). In that directory, is a file "server.xml".
Make a copy of that file, and edit that copy.
Remove all the XML comments from it. (Those are text sections between
"<!--" and "-->" sequences), and also paste the rest here.
Then, we might see things a bit more clearly.
Then, while we are looking at that, get yourself an add-on for your
browser, that we will use later to show what exactly is going on between
the browser and the server. If you are using Firefox (recommended), get
the HttpFox add-on for example. If you are using IE, get Fiddler2. You
can find these things in Google, or in the "add-ons/plugins" menu of the
browser.
So, off you go.

Now who is that on 8081?

The HTTPS port, most likely from the same process that's listening on 80.
> tcp 0 0 :::8443 :::* LISTEN
That's a commonly used port for Tomcat HTTPS traffic.

That shows connections have been made at some point to whatever is listening on 8080.
Looks to me like you've got more things running on this box than you're aware of, quite possibly including another copy of Tomcat - not the one you think you're using. Until you determine what's really going on in this box, there's not much anyone can do to help you.
Run the netstat -anp so we can look at pid numbers, and post your entire server.xml.

therefore, I tried accessing http://serverhostname:8080 from the server
itself, and it displays a blank page. Maybe the department firewal is
blocking the access from other nets.
How can I get to the tomcat home page, instead of it showing me a blank
page?
thanks again.

there are no errors logged in the /var/log/tomcat5 ; The server.xml file has
The file is showing Server port="8005" and <Connector port="8080'>
I know in firewall port 8005 is open. what is the connector port? Could it

And we're back to the "standard Tomcat vs packaged Tomcat" discussion..
Testwreq,
The "standard Tomcat" is the one which you get and download from
http://tomcat.apache.org.
That is the current version, and the one everyone here knows and loves,
because for that one, everyone knows where the files are, what the
standard settings are, and so on.
But is not a "package" that fits with the "package manager" software of
any particular Unix/Linux version.
And then there are many "pre-packaged Tomcats", which vary depending on
which Unix/Linux type or distribution they are made for, and by whom,
from which (generally older) version of the standard Tomcat.
For reasons mostly good but sometimes bad, these packages tend to vary
from the original and between them, as to which locations they install
the files in, which links to what they also set up, which settings they
set by default, which ports they use, under which user they are started,
how they are started, etc..
Unfortunately, the people here do not know all these versions, so our
capacity to help is limited, except to provide general principles and
direct you to the standard documentation.
So if you are having problems with a particular packaged version of
Tomcat (like you are using), the best place to ask for help first is
probably the help desk or help list of your particular Unix/Linux version.
Then once this packaged Tomcat is running, if you are having problem
/using/ it, maybe we can help better.

The standard Tomcat downloads are configured to use port 8080 by default; what your version has isn't known, so you'll have to look in Tomcat's conf/server.xml file.

You probably don't need that; the standard Tomcat startup scripts determine what the value should be. However, since you're not using a standard Tomcat, it's hard to tell.

Go through the server.xml file and see if there's anything you need to change. Read the Tomcat docs for more information.

Re: How do I set up and run Tomcat 5.5.23 on Cetos5.3
Posted by testwreq wreq <te...@gmail.com>.
It is not running yet.
There are a few things.
1/I already have apache running on port 80. If I start the tomcat service, I
think it will probably start on port 80 as well. Will it not clash?
2/ I have setup the following environment variables
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java
CATALINA_HOME = /usr/share/tomcat5
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar
chown -R tomcat /usr/share/tomcat5
ln -s /usr/share/tomcat5 /usr/share/tomcat
I will be adding the first 4 variables to the profile file.
3/ if I run the startup command for tomcat, it will start the service as
root. It should be started as non privileged user on everystartup. I have
seen some links on that, which I will read and follow.
4/ Is there anything else that should be done to setup tomcat?
thanks.

Well, according to what it says above, you are done. That's the nice
part about these packages. Tomcat is installed, and probably running.

Read the FAQ:
http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo#How_to_run_Tomcat_without_root_privileges.3F
I would not recommend adding httpd to the mix (unnecessary complexity and performance impacts); use either jsvc or iptables.

That was indeed an enjoyable formulation.

+1 too.
That is why I tend to be a bit more sympathetic than some others which I
will not name, to the poor sods coming here with their "un-real" Tomcat
packages.
There is also a certain added satisfaction to the chase, I find.

We're using Debian Lenny in production, and they are stuck on MysQL
5.0... forever. We'll have to wait until Squeeze comes out to get a new
version. MySQL EOL'd v5.0 at the end of last year, and the Debian folks
didn't exactly plan for that when they bet on MySQL 5.0 for Lenny (which
was released at the /beginning/ of last year, shortly after the release
of MySQL 5.1).
Unfortunately for Debian/MySQL users, the release cycles and policies of
both of these products are such that these kinds of things will always
be happening. :(
Of course, we could always get the binaries directly from MySQL or build
it ourselves, but there's just something about sweet, sweet
package-managed software that's tough to leave behind.

Unfortunately, I cannot use 6.0 because my boss believes that we should use
the one that comes with the centos built as this is tested.
Thanks a lot for the link. Since I am new, I am not sure what unix daemon
setup is and that is what this document is asking to do? Do I have to run
./configure script first or do I have to set some environment variables?
Currently, I am logged to my test machine as root. But, I want to run tomcat
as non privileged user.

Since you're using a non-standard version of Tomcat, the instructions on the Tomcat web site might not correspond exactly with the CentOS distribution. Regardless, start here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/index.html
Note that the version of Tomcat you've chosen to use is three years old, and several fixes for a variety of problems (including security) have gone in since then. You might want to consider discarding that one and loading the latest Tomcat from here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/download-60.cgi
If you do choose to use Tomcat 6.0 (highly recommended), its doc starts here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/index.html
If you have specific questions, please ask.
