RE: Tomcat Won't Start When 1024Mb JVM Memory Specified
From: Joe Reger, Jr. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Tomcat Won't Start When 1024Mb JVM Memory Specified Is there a 1Gb limit on the JVM? On Tomcat? Not on those, but Windows normally provides only 2GB of virtual space for each process. (There's an initialization switch that can change this to 3GB, but that introduces some other issues.) Unfortunately, this space is fragmented, and the JVM heap is allocated in one contiguous chunk (at least it was in 1.4.1). I'm a bit surprised you ran out at 1GB. Should I configure by editing startup.bat/catalina.bat instead? Definitely makes it easier to fiddle with the values until you find the maxima. You don't need to start Tomcat to play with -Xmx and the other heap settings - a simple HelloWorld will suffice. Always set -Xms and -Xmx to the same value when you're trying to find the limit. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

RE: Tomcat won't start
The problem posted below appears to be caused by Tomcat not being able to find catalina.jar. This file should be (and is) located in catalina_home/server/lib.

RE: Tomcat won't start
I don't think that is the problem. The startup script has no problem reading JAVA_HOME or CATALINA_HOME. It is only after bootstrap.jar is executed and the server.xml file is read that the problem occurs. It is almost like the classloader that is being used cannot see catalina.jar in /server/lib.

Re: Tomcat won't start
Probably it is not that, but I had a similar problem and I edited the startup file to echo the values of the variables. It showed what I expected. The problem is that tomcat is started in another shell. This new shell doesn't have its parent's environment variables, only the ones set globally.

Re: Tomcat Won't start on NT
This problem of running tomcat 4.1 and above, with JDK 1.4 and above has
been documented (and quite well too) at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/class-loader-howto.html
(scroll down to the section XML Parsers and JDK 1.4).
In essence, the conflict is caused by the built-in JAXP parser supplied with
JDK1.4 and the one you are trying to use for your application. You can still
use JDK 1.4 or above, but you'd need to set the parameter
java.endorsed.dirs, while installing the application.Read
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/standards/index.html for more
information.

Subject: Re: Tomcat Won't start on NT
I think you can still use JDK 1.3 but I'd reccommend using 1.4.
How you get this to work on JDK 1.3, I'm not sure... you can start by
trying
to get an XML parser implementation (like Xerces) and either put that
somewhere in your classpath or (better yet since I hate the global
classpath)
put it in your {TOMCAT_HOME}/lib directory.
I don't know if it's enough to just put it there but at least it's a
starting
point. You may need to configure some things but I don't know more about
that. I seem to recall reading that you need to remove the jaxp.jar and
parser.jar files when you put xerces.jar instead so the classloader
doesn't
get confused.
Go ahead and try that and let us know how it works out.
Regards, Stefan.
p.s. don't completely delete the jaxp.jar and parser.jar files... just
move
them somewhere temporarily since I only vaguely remember reading this...
this
might not even be neccessary at all.

I imagine that you have a problem with an XML parser definition. If you

Raj do a ctrl alt delete and tell us if tomcat the process is running or not. It is possible that you chose run as a system process while installing on NT. To do a double check run it as you are and then check http://localhost:portno/ If u see the page - it means tomcat is running as a background process and u need to make it not disappear.

RE: Tomcat Won't start on NT
Catalina run (not catalina start). Read the catalina log (from your tomcat\logs\ directory). Often it's because you have an error in one of the configuration XML files or because there is something else running on the port you are trying to start tomcat on.

Re: Tomcat Won't start on NT
I think you can still use JDK 1.3 but I'd reccommend using 1.4.
How you get this to work on JDK 1.3, I'm not sure... you can start by trying
to get an XML parser implementation (like Xerces) and either put that
somewhere in your classpath or (better yet since I hate the global classpath)
put it in your {TOMCAT_HOME}/lib directory.
I don't know if it's enough to just put it there but at least it's a starting
point. You may need to configure some things but I don't know more about
that. I seem to recall reading that you need to remove the jaxp.jar and
parser.jar files when you put xerces.jar instead so the classloader doesn't
get confused.
Go ahead and try that and let us know how it works out.
Regards, Stefan.
p.s. don't completely delete the jaxp.jar and parser.jar files... just move
them somewhere temporarily since I only vaguely remember reading this... this
might not even be neccessary at all.

I imagine that you have a problem with an XML parser definition. If you
have
JDK 1.4.x installed you might try to run tomcat using that JDK since it has
a
built in XML implementation.

Re: Tomcat won't start.
Hi Barbara, I am using tomcat 4.0.3 full, not the LE one. ~Glen Hi Glen, I guess you have tomcat4.0.3 LE. This version of Tomcat does not include an XML Parser since it is designed for use with jdk1.4 (jdk1.4 has an XML Parser included). If I am right, the solution is: Get the other Tomcat edition (not the lightweight one). regards, Barbara Tomcat won't start when I start the Tomat Service. I check the stdout.log file and get the following error below: Can somebody please help me in resolving the reason why I am getting this and how I can get Tomcat to start and run?This is very urgent that I get this going.

Re: Tomcat won't start with j2sdk 1.3.1 Linux
I have been using xerces with 1.3.1 albeit on WinNT and have no problems with it. You have to make sure in your tomcat.properties, wrapper.properties and tomcat.bat, you mention xerces.jar on the top where ever you configure the library files for example in tomcat.properties wrapper.classpath=c:\tomcat\lib\xerces.jar; wrapper.classpath= the xerces.jar needs to load up in the context first and everything should work Goodluck Kris --- pete [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I get this.

Re: Tomcat won't start with j2sdk 1.3.1 Linux
We've been using Sun's JDK 1.3.1 on Linux for a while now. Currently we use Tomcat 3.2.1 and xerces version 1.3.0. It seemed to work fine on RedHat 6.1 but on 7.1 there was a link that missing. I think I experienced the same seg fault issue that is referred to below. If this is the problem it can be fixed by doing the following as root: cd /lib/i686 The required link is libpthread.so. If it isn't there then create it: ln -s libpthread.so.0 libpthread.so Then run: /sbin/ldconfig This fixed the problem with regards to running 1.3.1 on RedHat Linux 7.1. Hope this helps. P.

Re: Tomcat won't start with j2sdk 1.3.1 Linux
Tried that, no go. The odd thing is that JDK 1.3.1 will work quite happily without 0xerces.jar in the tomcat /lib folder. When i remove it, tomcat starts up normally. when i put it in, segfault. I added the symlink to /lib (I use Mandrake 8, not RH 7.1 so no i686 folder) and re-ran ldconfig. Same behaviour. This looks to be a bug with the Linux JDK1.3.1 -Pete We've been using Sun's JDK 1.3.1 on Linux for a while now. Currently we use Tomcat 3.2.1 and xerces version 1.3.0.

Has anyone run Tomcat under linux with j2sdk 1.3.1-b24? I have been using Tomcat
3.2.1 (and now 3.2.2) happily for some time now with j2sdk 1.3 and linux (SuSE 7.1,
kernel 2.4.5). I decided to get current with my Java VM, but when I try to start up
Tomcat I get this error:
/usr/local/tomcat/bin/tomcat.sh: line 180: 20646 Segmentation fault $JAVACMD
$TOMCAT_OPTS -Dtomcat.home=${TOMCAT_HOME} org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat $@
The only difference is the new Java SDK. Other Java applications run successfully
with the new SDK. I also have Tomcat 3.2.2/j2sdk 1.3.1-b24 running fine under Solaris
8.
Any ideas?
