Tomcat on Ubuntu seems to have a nasty habit of ignoring configuration settings unless you put them into exactly the right spot. Maybe you're running into the same problem. Assuming you're using the tomcat6 package (not tomcat6-user), try setting JAVA_OPTS in /etc/default/tomcat6. At the same time you may also want to double-check that your choice of JDK isn't being overridden in this file (it is set to openjdk by default -- https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Installing+DSpace+1.7+on+Ubuntu#InstallingDSpace1.7onUbuntu-ChangetheinuseJavatoSunJava%2CasopposedtoOpenJDK). If you're using tomcat6-user: It looks like the tomcat startup script generated by the tomcat6-user package actually uses the JAVA_OPTS env variable if it exists. Otherwise, have a look at the setenv.sh script in the bin subdirectory of your tomcat instance. cheers, Andrea -- Andrea Schweer IRR Technical Specialist, ITS Information Systems The University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA http://p.sf.net/sfu/rim-devcon-copy2 _______________________________________________ DSpace-tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
