Try adding this to the tomcat startup scripts : -Djava.awt.headless=true (which you can only do with JDK1.4 or higher) .

Ouch! wacky issues between java and X. The archives have talked about similar items and I am sure there are google links talking about use X with java. Otherwise - I am pretty clueless on the topic.

I've done some more testing and it doesn't have anything to do with
starting Tomcat at boot as I first thought. The problem is that my
servlet tries to connect to the X server when run. I have no idea why it
needs to connect to the X server (It's a servlet that EspressReport wrote
to connect to a database and generate a report.), but anyway this seems to
be the problem. In order to get my servlet to work I need to do 'xhost +
localhost' before Tomcat is started. I'm starting Tomcat as root and root
is not allowed to connect to screen :0 by default since my user name owns
it.
I think if I started Tomcat with my user name and not root it would work,
however, for some reason I can't start Tomcat this way. When I start
Tomcat as a normal user it starts fine and ps -ef shows the java processes
started by Tomcat, but after about 3 seconds all the processes quit and
Tomcat is no longer running. Anyone have any idea why this would happen?
As root Tomcat continues to run.

Is it just your servlet that doesn't work, or all servlets? (and jsps)
Are you using different userids when run from boot time vs command line?
What happens if your startup command is moved to inittab? (Or other wacky
equivalent)

It's not a system CLASSPATH I have set. I put the jar files I want in the
CLASSPATH in $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib. Tomcat does recognize these if I
start Tomcat manually, but not if I have Tomcat staring at boot time with
the script in /etc/rc.d/init.d

Tomcat ignores system CLASSPATH at startup and creates its own.

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?
