Start Tomcat as a Linux daemon
Hi,
I'm trying to start Tomcat as a linux daemon at server boot, but i don't
have jsvc (although i've installed package admin), like explained in
Tomcat's page.
An year ago or so, i had this ctl script that worked, but now again, i
don't have jsvc.
Any help would be apreciated.
Warm Regards,
Mário Gamito

Re: Start Tomcat as a Linux daemon
Posted by Warren Pace <wa...@bellsouth.net>.
Mario,
Have you recently installed ver 5.5.12 and created symlinks to
"jakarta-tomcat"? If not your script needs to be edited to reflect the
new directory structure -
CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.12
DAEMON_HOME=/usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.12/bin
Otherwise, just strip the /bin off of the CATALINA_HOME environment
variable and maybe add some CATALINA_OPTS. I've attached my init.d
script which follows the LSB rules (to a point) which I wrote for my
OpenSuSE distribution. Feel free to modify it for your own use.

Re: Start Tomcat as a Linux daemon
Posted by Mirek Kopriva <mi...@gmail.com>.
You could send your tomcat init script, it would give me
more info about what could be wrong.
It looks like something is missing on the classpath.
One thing you could try. Don't copy jsvc and
use it directly from where it was build.
We had errors when running it by using a symlink to the original
place. God knows why. (got some jsvc error)
Anyway if anybody knows about this issue, any help is welcomed.
All the best,
Mirek

Re: Start Tomcat as a Linux daemon

Hi,
It's in $CATALINA_HOME/bin/jsvc-src.tar.gz you need to
unpack it and compile it yourself.
See the tomcat/startup documentation for more details.

RE: Start Tomcat as a Linux daemon
Posted by Richard Mixon <rn...@qwest.net>.
Mario,
Your CATALINA_HOME and DAEMON_HOME should be pointing to
/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat not the bin subdirectory.
That should help - Richard
