I have the following recommendations: - put a 'set -xv' in all batch scripts that are part of the startup procedure. - I'm not familiar with HP/UX. Under linux I would try to strace the startscript.

Subject: RE: Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Ok, I finally got the script to execute correctly and I got the familiar
output:
Using CATALINA_BASE: /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4
Using CATALINA_HOME: /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/temp
Using JAVA_HOME: /opt/java1.4
But tomcat still isn't starting, and I am not receiving any other errors.
Also the script executes fine when I do it from command line. I have placed
the start/stop script in /sbin/init.d/. I have made the script be last to
start and first to stop. I couldn't get the script to recognize the env
variables when they were in the rc.config.d directory, so I placed them
directly in the script which seems to have worked, but the process still
isn't starting.
Can anybody give me any other ideas as to what could be wrong or what I
could try? Any ideas how I can get a better error information?
Below is the start/stop script - /sbin/init.d/tomcat. Can you see anything
missing?
Thanks in advance for everybody's input and help.

Subject: RE: Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Have a look at /usr/share/doc/start_up.txt or /usr/share/doc/start_up.ps on
a HP-UX 11.00 machine
for details of how to write a startup script conforming to HP-UX's standards
(for issuing messages
at startup and shutdown via the 'start_msg' and 'stop_msg' parameters,
honouring the settings in
/etc/rc.config.d etc...).
You can use any of the scripts in /sbin/init.d as a basis - modify one as
appropriate and
get it to simply call catalina.sh.
We also modified our catalina.sh to check which userid was calling the
script. If it was root it would sudo to the non-privileged user that Tomcat
ran under ('tomcat'). If it was userid 'tomcat' calling it it would simply
continue. If it was anyone else, it would exit with an error message. This
way we get Tomcat started as a non-privileged user
starting automatically on boot.

1 - You classpath is probably wrong - it should be tiny to allow dynamic classloading so classes may be reloaded 2 - Try using startup.sh, here is an easy way: cd /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4 bin/startup.sh instead of catalina.sh. 3 - Temporarily - hack the startup scripts to print crap to standard out so you can trap the error messages for more information 4 - There should be error messages somewhere - but do the above since they can't seem to be found -Tim Lott, Carey wrote: Since nobody has responded does this mean nobody has any more ideas on the problem or am I getting the You idiot.

Tim is right. In HP/UX there is a default start script (I
forget what it's called). You plug in the name of your

you service as being active somewhere else. (I know I'm not

Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Hi, The above subject is based on the exact same topic I found in the archives from back in January, but no solution was ever posted. We are having the exact same problem that Pascal was having. We are trying to start tomcat from an init script at boot time. I have the needed variables in the init script, and the init script calls catalina.sh directly. Below is a copy of my script. I have used the script to stop and start tomcat manually without a problem. However, when Tomcat tries to start at boot time the run control information states that it can't start as root, and it is going to try as bin, but it is unsuccessful. Does anybody know why it wouldn't be able to start as root? What can I do to fix this?

RE: Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
I tried calling the startup.sh instead of catalina.sh, but I had the same outcome. It executes the first part of the script which displays the variables that are being used, but it doesn't do anything more. We haven't been able to find any errors to give us an idea of what the problem is. I'm sorry I think I forgot to say in the initial email that I am running Tomcat 4.0.4 on HP/UX 11.00. I appreciate any suggestions you can offer. signature nameCarey Lott/name posWeb Tools Support/pos orgInfrastructure Storage Tools Support/org companyEDS/company accountBellSouth/account phone404-529-6676/phone email[EMAIL PROTECTED]/email ipager[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ipager /signature disclaimer * The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential, proprietary, and/or privileged material.

RE: Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Tim is right. In HP/UX there is a default start script (I forget what it's called). You plug in the name of your service and add any other stuff it might need. You define you service as being active somewhere else. (I know I'm not much help but it's been a while). That way when it starts you get the [OK] message. -e On Thu, 7 Aug 2003, Lott, Carey wrote: I tried calling the startup.sh instead of catalina.sh, but I had the same outcome.

Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Hi All, Tomcat starts fine if I call startup.sh manually, but not if it is called from the init scripts when the HP/UX box starts. When trying to start tomcat from the init scripts when the HP/UX box is booting, tomcat seems to start up fine but then on the last line in catalina.out it just says that it is shuttong down and that's the end of it. So the logs are not very useful for helping me figure out what the problem might be. Has anyone encountered this problem, and what was the fix? Thanks, Pascal Forget -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Your init scripts do not have the same environment as your login environment. That is, whe you login, things like JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME are set. When you run a script through init, they aren't. Change your init script to set the values of JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME, or source the login files (like /etc/profile, perhaps) where those variables are declared and set.

Re: Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Thanks for the tip, John. I already set CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME near the top of catalina.sh for that very reason, so maybe it's something else in the environment. Anyway your email provided us with a good hint on what we should look for. Thanks! Pascal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Yeah we had wacky issues with that too. We had some incomptentant admins who tried starting up tomcat before the network was brought up. We also ran into wacky shell behavior (can't remember the specifics) that java did not like to start on boot from any run level. I think in the end we added an entry to /etc/inittab to a internally written/adapted script which takes one arg of stop/start ... and does the appropriate action to all our tomcat instances. I can post the script if I can get permission. Its a hard thing to test because in our 2+ yrs with our HPUX boxes - we rebooted them twice. (And that was because the box needed moved across the country) -Tim Pascal Forget wrote: Hi All, Tomcat starts fine if I call startup.sh manually, but not if it is called from the init scripts when the HP/UX box starts.

Does your init script call catalina.sh directly?
