Tomcat install on Cobalt.
Hello, Sorry to post without searching, but, the search function is down. I am installing Tomcat for the first time and must admit that the instructions leave a bit to be desired. I'm installing on a Cobalt Raq3i. Below is the install list out of the doc. 1. Download the zip/tar.gz/whatever file from http://jakarta.apache.org/downloads/binindex.html. 2. Unzip the file into some directory (say foo). This should create a new subdirectory named tomcat. 3. Change directory to tomcat and set a new environment variable (TOMCAT_HOME) to point to the root directory of your Tomcat hierarchy. On UNIX you should type: for bash/sh TOMCAT_HOME=foo/tomcat ; export TOMCAT_HOME for tcsh setenv TOMCAT_HOME foo/tomcat ***Good till here * ** Here is where I'm lost *** 4. ? - Set the environment variable JAVA_HOME to point to the root directory of your JDK hierarchy, then add the Java interpreter to your PATH environment variable. Any help appreciated. Thanks chuck

So I take it noone knows how to install tomcat? chuck Any help appreciated. Thanks chuck
Re: Tomcat install on Cobalt.
I've never installed tomcat on a cobalt server, but I'll take a crack at your question. You need to have the JAVA_HOME environment variable pointed to the place you installed the jdk. So if your jdk is in /usr/local/jdk1.3, then your JAVA_HOME variable would equal /usr/local/jdk1.3. And the part about the path is just saying make sure that the interpreter is in your path. If you can go to a command prompt and type java -version, or something like that, you should be fine.

Re: Tomcat install on Cobalt.
I've never used a Cobalt. What version of Java does it have? As far as this: ** Here is where I'm lost *** 4. ? - Set the environment variable JAVA_HOME to point to the root directory of your JDK hierarchy, then add the Java interpreter to your PATH environment variable. It means do something like this: for Bash: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.3 export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk1.3/bin That's assuming that the Java install is in /usr/local/jdk1.3 If not, change the paths appropriately.

JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java; export JAVA_HOME or something it depends on where you put java, which I don't believe you told us.
