Tomcats warning message about APR library
I've got this message when starting a tomcat server :
org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener.lifecycleEvent The APR
based Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal performance in
production environments was
not found on the java.library.path:
/usr/java/packages/lib/amd64:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/jni:/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:/usr/lib/jni:/lib:/usr/lib
Even though I've installed the apr along with some other stuff like this :
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev build-essential libapr1 libapr1-dev
libssl-dev libreadline-dev -y
This is where I found the info that I need to install it:
http://tomcat.apache.org/native-doc/
What am I missing here? I'm using tomcat 8 btw.

Thanks Neven for your answer and the steps (Hvala puno!). Thanks everyone
for your answers.
@Christopher Schultz
Both their answers were more than helpful, and I learned something new. No
offense but your reply was kind of unnecessary, just because I learned
nothing new.
Thanks again guys!

Your instructions here are entirely unnecessary: the Tomcat Native
source package includes a BUILDING.txt file that describes how to
compile and link the library.

Emir,
The actual list of steps is at the link you mentioned earlier:
http://tomcat.apache.org/native-doc/

There might be others that want to compile their TCNATIVE (apr-based)
connectors, so here's the digested list below (for Ubuntu/Debian based
systems):
1) Install required libraries for building TCNATIVE (APR dev, APR, and SSL
tools)
sudo apt-get zlib1g-dev build-essential libapr1 libapr1-dev libssl-dev
2) Unpack TC-native source, e.g.
cd /opt/apache-tomcat-8.0.20
cd bin
tar zxvf tomcat-native.tar.gz
3) Change directory to TC-native source code, e.g.
cd /opt/tomcat/bin/tomcat-native-1.1.32-src/jni/native/
4) Prepare makefile for compiling source, e.g.
./configure --with-apr=/usr/bin/apr-config --with-prefix=/opt/tomcat
5) Compile code, e.g.
make
6) Install libraries, e.g.
make install
7) This will add libraries to:
/opt/tomcat/lib
You can see the actual things installed:
/opt/tomcat/lib/pkgconfig
/opt/tomcat/lib/pkgconfig/tcnative-1.pc
/opt/tomcat/lib/catalina-storeconfig.jar
/opt/tomcat/lib/libtcnative-1.a
/opt/tomcat/lib/libtcnative-1.so.0.1.32
/opt/tomcat/lib/libtcnative-1.so.0
/opt/tomcat/lib/libtcnative-1.la
/opt/tomcat/lib/libtcnative-1.so
8) Now we need to let Tomcat know about these libraries and add them to the
library path. Add a new file, e.g. /opt/tomcat/bin/setenv.sh file:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${CATALINA_HOME}/lib
9) Restart Tomcat,e.g.
/opt/tomcat/bin/catalina.sh run
10) Observe the output, you should see something like this in the console
log:
INFO [main] org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener.lifecycleEvent
Loaded APR based Apache Tomcat Native library 1.1.32 using APR version
1.5.1.
INFO [main] org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener.lifecycleEvent

Good luck!

Hey Emir,
I've done a little test on my Ubuntu VM. Read below my additional comments:

If you decide with option (1), you could install libtcnative-1, and that
will install the following files for you:
$ dpkg --listfiles libtcnative-1
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/lintian
/usr/share/lintian/overrides
/usr/share/lintian/overrides/libtcnative-1
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/libtcnative-1
/usr/share/doc/libtcnative-1/copyright
/usr/share/doc/libtcnative-1/README.Debian
/usr/share/doc/libtcnative-1/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/tcnative-1.pc
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcnative-1.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcnative-1.so.0.1.29
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcnative-1.so.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcnative-1.so
Notice the version number is x.1.29
After adding /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH, your Tomcat
will be able to find the libtcnative-1 libraries on the the library path
(java.library.path).
If you try using this package with the latest Tomcat 8.0.20 - you will run
into a problem of incompatible libraries, e.g.
SEVERE [main] org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener.init An
incompatible version 1.1.29 of the APR based Apache Tomcat Native library
is installed, while Tomcat requires version 1.1.32
Notice the latest Tomcat 8.0.20 requires version 1.1.32.
So, the (apt-get installed) TCNATIVE shared library was found on the
library path, but it was incompatible version, and Tomcat would not start
APR-based connectors, but rather revert to default (NIO for Tomcat8, BIO
for Tomcat7).
Which brings my original point - I prefer to compile my own TCNATIVE
(APR-based) libraries to using the vendor packaged libraries (CentOS yum or
Ubuntu apt-get).
It takes time for vendor to package and distribute a new release of
packaged software, so you might be better of recompiling these pieces
yourself.
How did you install tomcat8? Did you use apt-get package or did you

Let us know if you need help compiling the native Tomcat connectors
(APR-based).

I stand corrected: the message notifies that (APR-based) Tomcat Native
library is not available on the java.library.path.

I stand corrected: You can compile your own (APR-based) Tomcat Native
library, and for that you need APR libraries installed.
Cheers!

The message is about Tomcat Native library.
Tomcat Native library uses APR to perform the work. It *is not* APR.

You have two choices:
1) Find a specific package that includes the required packages, e.g.
apt-get install libapr1 libapr1-dev
apt-get install libtcnative-1
(I have not tested these, you need to look through the packages and find
out exactly which one you need)
2) Compile your own native APR library, as the page suggested:
http://tomcat.apache.org/native-doc/
Usually, I just compile my own on Linux (*nix, OSX), and for Windows
customers - I just use the distribution with the shared DLLs.
I prefer this way, as I deal with various Linux flavours (RHEL, CentOS,
Ubuntu) and they all have their own packages. It takes time (longer than I
want to wait) for the vendor to make these Tomcat packages. You can get
your own Tomcat installed and upgraded the very same day a new Tomcat
release is out.
Also, Tomcat team makes it very convenient for Windows users with the
Windows binaries included, and recompiling on Windows requires extra effort
setting up the tools.

How did you install tomcat8? Did you use apt-get package or did you
download the standard ZIP/TAR package from Tomcat's page?
Good luck!
PS. I will try locating the actual package and test it on my Ubuntu VM.
