Re: How do I run Tomcat as a non-root user?
Marcus, I was able to resolve the make by doing the last compile step manually. As far as why a 32 bit JVM or a 64 bit machine, that only applies to my development system (which is my desktop). Our production servers are 32 bit systems. The problem with a 64 bit JVM on my development box is that MyEclipse (unless it's changed and I'm unaware) does not behave dependably in 64 bit. Using 32 bit, my Java development is rock-solid, so why change. -- Rob Markus Schönhaber said the following on 10/10/2007 02:01 PM: Rob Tanner wrote: I downloaded it and also applied the patch to eliminate the "Cannot execute JSVC executor process" error.

You could set up a cross-compiler/cross-toolchain that is able to create 32-bit binaries or compile it on a 32-bit machine. Either way, you'll have to install the 32-bit versions of the dependent libraries as well (or create a static binary).

Marcus, I downloaded it and also applied the patch to eliminate the "Cannot execute JSVC executor process" error. But here's the catch, and maybe you know the answer. The machine and the OS (Fedora) are 64bit but the Java runtime is 32bit. In order for jsvc to make use of the shared libs, it has to be 32 bit as well. So, I build it like this: CFLAGS=-m32 CPPFLAGS=-m32 CCASFLAGS=-m32 LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib -L/lib" \ ./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu \ But at the end of the make, I get gcc -L/usr/lib -L/lib -ldl -lpthread jsvc-unix.o libservice.a -o ../jsvc /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libdl.so when searching for -ldl /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libdl.a when searching for -ldl /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libpthread.so when searching for -lpthread /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libpthread.a when searching for -lpthread /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.so when searching for -lc /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.a when searching for -lc /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `jsvc-unix.o' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(arguments.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(debug.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(help.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(home.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(java.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(location.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(replace.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `libservice.a(dso-dlfcn.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output And I end up with an ELF 64-bit LSB executable that gets an immediate segmentation fault.
