I've got Tomcat 4.1.24 starting at boot on my Linux box with a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d. The script looks like this
#!/bin/sh JAVA_HOME=/usr/java export JAVA_HOME /opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24/bin/startup.sh
Tomcat is starting at boot and seems to work fine http://localhost:8080 brings up the default Tomcat home page. The only thing that doesn't seem to be working is my classpaths that I set in the catalina.sh file are not being set. If I start Tomcat from the command line my classpaths are being read and my servlet works, but when starting Tomcat at boot my classpaths don't seem to be set because when I try to run my servlet I get "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError"
I don't get this error when Tomcat is started from the command line. Why would starting it at boot time not use my user set classpaths?
Here is the portion of catalina.sh that I added my classpath to.
# Add on extra jar files to CLASSPATH if [ -n "$JSSE_HOME" ]; then
CLASSPATH="$CLASSPATH":"$JSSE_HOME"/lib/jcert.jar:"$JSSE_HOME"/lib/jnet.jar: "$JSSE_HOME"/lib/jsse.jar fi CLASSPATH="$CLASSPATH":"$CATALINA_HOME"/bin/bootstrap.jar: /opt/EspressReport/lib/ReportAPIWithChart.jar: /opt/EspressReport/lib/ExportLib.jar
I also tried adding the two jar files ReportAPIWithChart.jar and ExportLib.jar to CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib
Both methods work and my classpaths are set and my servlet works, but only if Tomcat is started from the command line "CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh". Why doesn't this work when starting at boot?
