RE: Catalina doesn't like JRE, but works fine with JDK

Tomcat needs the JDK to compile JSP pages. The JRE does not include the
compiler.

Subject: Catalina doesn't like JRE, but works fine with JDK


I just installed JRE 1.3.1_04 and JDK 1.3.1_04 successively.

Pointing JAVA_HOME to JDK for Tomcat 4.1.10 works fine,
setting JAVA_HOME to JRE gives the error message:

"The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly"

I found the message often in tomcat-users list but
in the context of misspellings.

In my case i can eliminate a misspelling.

So,
what makes the difference between JDK and JRE for Tomcat 4.1.10 ?
