Dear Simon, You need to define JAVA_HOME and CATALINA them usually system wide to make it easier.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables /etc/environment being a good one.

Am having problems configuring tomcat5.5 on ubuntu, just the way it was with Suse. Here is how I have gone so far; -Downloaded apache tomcat .tar, -Extracted it -Copied the extracted folder-contents into /usr/local/tomcat -Defined JAVA_HOME as /home/smuwanga/software/applications/jdk1.6.0_18 -Defined CATALINA_HOME as /usr/local/tomcat -Run # sudo ./startup.sh However, an error like this is returned. Neither the JAVA_HOME nor the JRE_HOME environment variable is defined At least one of these environment variable is needed to run this program How am I meant to go over this? I have also visited http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2611681#post2611681 , this way tomcat installs, but after deploying a *.war file, the resource is not available. BTW, am using ubuntu 9.0.4 How can I go about this?
