Just as a follow up, it seems that setting the 'fedora.home' parameter
within catalina.properties alone doesn't negate the need for the
FEDORA_HOME environment variable. I was under the impression that this
was the case.
Setting FEDORA_HOME in the 'global' environment variables settings for
the machine solved this issue, and such the fedora.home parameter in
catalina.properties was not needed.

Subject: [fcrepo-dev] FEDORA_HOME setting Windows 2008 Server
(Tomcatrunning as service)
Hi all,
I'm running the latest version of the Fedora (3.4.2) on a Windows 2008
Server R2 - 64-bit using a standalone Apache Tomcat instance running as
Windows Service. In the past to get around the FEDORA_HOME environment
variable issue, I placed the following in the 'catalina.properties'
file, which enabled Fedora to function as normal:-
fedora.home=c:\\path\\to\\fedora
Unfortunately I seem to be getting some bizarre errors saying that the
environment variable is not set in one place, and retrieves it fine in
others. For example in fedora.log on startup:-
INFO 2011-05-25 16:46:24.124 [main] (AuthFilterJAAS) using FEDORA_HOME:
c:\opt\fedora\fedora-3.4.2
INFO 2011-05-25 16:46:24.124 [main] (AuthFilterJAAS) initialised servlet

INFO 2011-05-25 16:46:24.906 [main] (Server) Initializing
org.fcrepo.server.oai.FedoraOAIProviderModule
The FEDORA_HOME environment variable is retrieved fine....
However when I try to navigate to http://localhost:8080/fedora/objects
it fails to authenticate (access auth switched on) and the following is
outputted in the logs:-
INFO 2011-05-25 16:46:31.031 [main] (Server) Server startup complete
ERROR 2011-05-25 16:47:07.859 [http-8080-2] (XmlUsersFileModule)
FEDORA_HOME environment variable not set
ERROR 2011-05-25 16:47:07.859 [http-8080-2] (XmlUsersFileModule)
FEDORA_HOME environment variable not set
ERROR 2011-05-25 16:47:07.874 [http-8080-2] (AuthFilterJAAS) Login
Failure: all modules ignored
As far as I can tell the FedoraUsers class in servletfilters.xmluserfile
is deriving the FEDORA_HOME setting from common.Constants class which
should read the above FEDORA_HOME variable.
Has anything changed recently that I need to be aware of when setting
the FEDORA_HOME environment variable when running Tomcat as a service
(as oppose to running startup.bat...)? As I mentioned previously, adding
the above information to fedora.home in catalina.properties did work
correctly on server installations in the past.
