We are possibly getting into religious issues, but you are really better
off not setting the environ vars somewhere that you don't need them..
Why not just make a file like the following (what I use) and drop it
into the appropriate rc directory (modifying as necessary, of course),
and link to it from init.d ?
#!/bin/sh
#
CATALINA_HOME=/where/ever/you/have/tomcat
export CATALINA_HOME
JAVA_HOME=/where/ever/you/have/java
export JAVA_HOME
case "$1" in
start)
cmdtext="starting"
echo "tomcat $cmdtext."
status=`su nobody ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/catalina.sh start $2>&1`
;;
restart)
cmdtext="restarting"
echo "tomcat $cmdtext."
status=`su nobody ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/catalina.sh stop ; sleep 10 ; su
nobody ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/catalina.sh start $2>&1`
;;
stop)
cmdtext="stopping"
echo "tomcat $cmdtext."
status=`su nobody ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/catalina.sh stop $2>&1`
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
;;
esac
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo "$status"
exit 1
fi
exit 0
