What I really suggest is: When I install Sarge Tomcat on a Sarge box, together with all packages it depends on, it should operate. Personally, I much rather deactivate the security manager, than throw Tomcat 4 out of Sarge main back into contrib. I am willing to go with Tomcat 4 rather than Tomcat 5, and make do without this, that, and the other feature, if that buys me free software. The web application that I intend to deploy has not yet been written, so I can make it happen. The bug is in kaffe not tomcat4. Tomcat4 works fine with other runtimes with security manager enabled. The bug in kaffe is fixed in CVS and probably in unstable too. Good to know. Thank you for the information. This particular bug is concerned with Sarge, though. This will be a production server (of sorts). The security team's backing is important for me, for whatever I end up running. I can't check currently. This needs to be checked and this bug needs then get moved to kaffe and tagged sarge. Disabling the security manager is not something to be taken lightly, yes. Pulling a brand-new release of kaffe into Sarge is not to be taken lightly, either. Which of these two, or maybe what else, is the best way for Debian to get Tomcat Sargly running? For Sarge its too late to change this. Your best option is to use a backport of kaffe from testing/unstable. I will soon start to create them when kaffe get uploaded in a new version. I tend to lean towards pulling kaffe, if that is an option. Is it? I am not sure what the right answer is. In particular, I am an old hat at Tomcat, but fairly new as a Kaffe user. So I cannot judge the relative stability of the Kaffe version presently in Sarge, vs. the Kaffe version that has the bug fix. Me, I just file them bugs ;-) ... Thanks for doing this.

That machine is a server and has few other software packages installed. In particular, the tomcat4 installation caused aptitude to install a host of other packages (I did not fully analyse what decisions aptitude made). I did not change anything and try to start tomcat. That did not work. In catalina_DATE.log, I received: Using CATALINA_BASE: /var/lib/tomcat4 Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/share/tomcat4 Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /var/lib/tomcat4/temp Using JAVA_HOME: /usr/lib/kaffe Using Security Manager Internal error: caught an unexpected exception. Please check your CLASSPATH and your installation. java/lang/ExceptionInInitializerError at java.lang.ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader(ClassLoader.java:772) I checked /usr/share/doc/tomcat4, and a few tomcat4 bug reports on the debian bug tracking system. One bug report suggested to remove the documentation stance from the server.xml, so I did that. I also removed the Apache connector, which I'm not needing for my setup. - Same error, tomcat again does not start. So I uncommented lines in /etc/defaults/tomcat4, and disabled the security manager. Now tomcat came up nicely and displayed the (empty) directory content. It would be very nice if you came up with a configuration that allows tomcat to start out of the box.
