I'm running tomcat 5.54 on the "free" kaffe vm instead of Sun's JDK.
When I start tomcat with the startup.sh script as root, everything runs
perfectly. However I'm having trouble launching the process with JSVC.
Does anybody know if JSVC can be made to work with java VMs other than
SUN's?
Jsvc debug output says it cannot find the file jvm.cfg, and also the
actual vm file library names from the sun jdk appear to be hard-coded
into the jsvc source because they cannot be found in the kaffe vm as
well.
If anyone has any helpful information, I would be most grateful.
It is disappointing that Tomcat 5.5.4 runs perfectly on Kaffe only to be
stopped by limitations in the commons-daemon... Perhaps there is
another way to run tomcat 5.54 on port 80 as an unprivileged user in
linux?
thank you, Ryan Harris

Ok, I'm going to paste some source then talk about it. First I don't know if Kaffe supports JNI or not. If it does then this should work.....not done it, but it should work.

1)
The file you will need to edit if you go this way will be <project>/src/native/unix/native/location.c
2-4 are one option and 5 is another option in itself.
2)
The location_jvm_cfg variable tells where the jvm.cfg file is. I don't know much about Kaffe, but if it doesn't have a server and client then jvm.cfg really means nothing and you need only a default jvm. If it does have different vms (i.e. Sun and IBM both have server and client in their latest releases) and you want to be able to use one then you need to also have a configured vm and you also need to have a line for the jvm.cfg file location or you need to make a symlink to the file to match the lines.....see man ln.
3) If you only want to use a default vm then add a line to the location_jvm_default variable like:
"$JAVA_HOME/kaffe_lib/jvm.so", /* I don't know the dir setup */
4) If you want to use a jvm.cfg file then make one....get a sun jre and examine that then look at it real good then examine the variable location_jvm_configured to understand how it works...it's pretty simple. After you see the .cfg file and you know whether Kaffe supports different vm configurations and has different .so's or symlinks for them add your lines to the location_jvm_configured to match any paths or file names you might have. Then remember that you'll need a $VM_NAME replacement in the jvm.cfg file that will work with the added line.
****5 is it's own option
5) You should be able to examine location.c and create symlinks to accomplish what you are wanting to do provided that Kaffe supports JNI, will follow the sym link correctly, and some how the symlinks file path won't screw up the way Kaffe is going to locate relative resources from it's files.
Something here should work for you. Editing the one .c file is really easy if you know c at all or just enough to be dangerous ..either way...as you already had to build the jsvc yourself I would imagine.
The other option using symlinks would be very fast to test out and see if it works. The logging that the jvm.cfg file doesn't exist will get dumped into the log file regardless...I think....even when it isn't an error. It's just some logging...though you should be able to run the application. But, like I said I don't know much about Kaffe, don't know if it supports JNI, and if it does I don't know how stable or buggy it's JNI code may or may not be.
If you don't know much about symlinks...they are simple. Again.... man ln
May not be the exact answer you are looking for, but if Kaffe supports what it needs to to be able to use jsvc the way it is coded then you should be able to get it working that way.
I'm not looking at the latest CVS code right now, but I'm sure there is a way to make it use java.exe as a child process also and not have to only go through JNI. Someone else might be able to help you there. I might get the code out of CVS later and have a peek, but what I've written should work by looking at the code.
