I have the JDK. In $CATALINA_HOME/bin (I understand this replaces $TOMCAT_HOME in the newer versions of Tomcat?) there is a startup.sh that calls catalina.sh that in turn calls setclasspath.sh. setclasspath.sh was asking for a "$BASEDIR" variable that I set to be equal to $CATALINA_HOME. Now, my questions are:
1) Do I modify the setclasspath.sh to look for the tools.jar and dt.jar (as some people have suggested; to me the tools.jar should be sufficient) in $JAVA_HOME/lib ? 2) ...or do I copy tools.jar to $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext ? 3) ...or do I copy tools.jar to $CATALINA_HOME/server/ and then either classes or lib ? 4) ...or do I copy tools.jar to $CATALINA_HOME/shared/ and then either classes or lib ? Just which jar file(s) exactly does Tomcat (Catalina) need access to, where do those files need to be located, and where (which script) do I make the changes so that the JVM that Tomcat (Catalina) uses can find those compilation classes. Thank you!
