I do not have any experience with tomcat, but we are going to provide a 
webserver with tomcat for a scientific organization, so I tried it at home on a 
rainy day.
- Installing a tomcat webserver based on Centos 5.1 at home: worked out of the 
box on port 8080.
- Today tried to set up tomcat webserver with SL 5.0 at work, doesn't work, 
when I start tomcat service in 'Service configuration' no error message, ... ?
- You are having problems with Tomcat and SL5.1.
- So I tried installing a tomcat webserver with Centos 5.1 at work: tomcat 
works immediately.
Not really a solution for you, but perhaps an alternative.

Just my 2 cents.

  Importance: High


  Hi,
    Have any of you got Tomcat5 running on SL 5.1 working successfully? Tomcat5 
fails due to the following error:

  Using CATALINA_BASE:   /usr/share/tomcat5
  Using CATALINA_HOME:   /usr/share/tomcat5
  Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/share/tomcat5/temp
  Using JRE_HOME:

  Any help would be appreciated. My apologies if this question has already been 
asked before and answered.

  Thanks,
  Sri
