RE: Running Tomcat with JRE?
Bai, to run using the JRE you need to set JRE_HOME not JAVA_HOME. Note: in our startup file we also set JAVA_HOME to null incase it was set elsewhere. I.e: set JAVA_HOME= set JRE_HOME=%VARIABLE%\java Regards -Original Message- From: Bai Shen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 12:42 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Running Tomcat with JRE?

Bai, not sure, we always use JDK but heres what I think... JAVA_HOME must always point at a JDK... if you have one installed... Its convention... because IDE's and the like look at it and they most definitely need JDK If you have a JRE installed you need to set this property... JRE_HOME Thats what seperates them Most times its not set because devs tend to use JDK's Tomcat most definitely runs on either... but I think if the scipts cant find JRE, they look at JAVA HOME If you running a windows service, it doesnt look at these... the location of the JRE/JDK is specified in the tab Another interesting thing... in Netbeans, Tomcat will run under the JDK you use in the environment, not sys params, or the service tabs These TC developers a clever people ;) --- HARBOR : http://www.kewlstuff.co.za/index.htm The most powerful application server on earth.
