Thanks for the reply Andrew... I did add the setenv.sh to the tomcat bin per the instructions before attempting to launch.
Tomcat isn’t even trying to start... nothing is being written to logs, only the catalina.sh usage written to terminal.

If not, you almost certainly need to. There’s some documentation of how to do that here: https://wiki.jasig.org/display/UPM40/Installing+Tomcat Kind regards, Andrew ------------------------------------------------------From: Tim Raymond Tim Raymond Reply: [email protected] [email protected] Date: November 22, 2013 at 9:20:19 AM To: [email protected] [email protected] Subject: [uportal-dev] Tomcat won't start on Mac > >Greetings. >I am trying to get a local install on my Mac running Mavericks and I can't get >tomcat to start.
