Hello folks; I think that there is a minor error in Tomcat 6 documentation ( http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/monitoring.html). It says that to setup JMX remote access you have to add
set CATALINA_OPTS="-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote \ -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=%my.jmx.port% \ -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false \ -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false" into tomcat startup script. Client does not connect to JMX after adding above setting because quotations marks are put around CATALINA_OPTS=*"* bla ..bla *". *If you remove "" everything works as expected. Thanks; --Gurkan
