tomcat doesnt want to start
Hello list,
i updated my ubuntu server to tomcat 6.0.24. (a kernel update was also
included) After a reboot tomcat doesn't want to start.
The status is not running and when i want to start it, it always says:
/etc/init.d/tomcat6 start
* Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6 [fail]
the same with force-reload
when i try to look at the logs in /var/log/tomcat i don't get access
sudo cat /var/log$ cd tomcat6/
-bash: cd: tomcat6/: Keine Berechtigung
Where should i look?
Can anyone provide some help how to get it running again?
thanks,
christian

Unfortunately, what you've got is a 3rd-party repackaged version of Tomcat, with a very different file structure and component set than that of a standard Tomcat download. You really need someone familiar with Ubuntu, rather than Tomcat.
If you can install a real Tomcat from tomcat.apache.org, then we can help you with that.

No, it is because of permissions on the /var/log/tomcat6 directory...
you cannot cd to that directory as an ordinary user.
so these will work:
sudo ls -l /var/log/tomcat6
sudo less /var/log/tomcat6/catalina.out
etc..

Probably you should instead do this:
$ cat /var/log/tomcat6
(I suspect it's the log file, not a tomcat6 folder).
