I initially tried to install it using the rpms and got the same result as you - it didn't work. I'm also using RH 7.1. I finally gave up and installed a binary distro from the 4.0.1 release. It works fine - you just have to write your own init.d script or just start and stop it using the .sh files. If I recall correctly the rpm distro left out a lot of files, e.g. the /TOMCAT_HOME/bin folder was empty and I think some other folders. I was meaning to ask this list if anyone has gotten those rpms to work????

I used the rpm install for Tomcat 4.0.1 onto RHLinux 7.1, and I can start/stop Tomcat using /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat start|stop|restart. I don't receive any errors doing this. However, when I go to test the tomcat installation using my browser: http://localhost:8080 I don't get the site, I get redirected to Netscape's page (where it redirects if it can't find a page). I can get to http://localhost just fine, so Tomcat isn't picking up port 8080. I have tried to find tomcat error logs, but haven't found them (where do they get logged?) What step have I left out on the install (I just installed the rpm: rpm -Uvh ...)? I have looked at the tomcat4.conf file located in /etc/tomcat4/conf dir -- here's what that looks like: # tomcat /etc/rc.d script example configuration file # Use with version 1.07 of the scripts or later # Where your java installation lives #JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.3.1 JAVA_HOME="/opt/IBMJava2-13" # You can pass some parameters to java # here if you wish to #JAVACMD="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -Xminf0.1 -Xmaxf0.3" # Where your tomcat installation lives # That change from previous RPM where TOMCAT_HOME # used to be /var/tomcat. # Now /var/tomcat will be the base for webapps only CATALINA_HOME="/var/tomcat4" JASPER_HOME="/var/tomcat4" # What user should run tomcat TOMCAT_USER="tomcat4" # You can change your tomcat locale here #LANG=en_US # If you wish to further customize your tomcat environment, # put your own definitions here # (i.e. LD_LIBRARY_PATH for some jdbc drivers) # Just do not forget to export them :) Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
