Subject: Tomcat 5.5 documentation: how to update website?
Hi all
Just spent time getting the Tomcat5.sh script to work as a daemon
under linux following the advice on the url:-
"The Apache Tomcat 5.5 Servlet/JSP Container"
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/setup.html
<quote>
"The file $CATALINA_HOME/bin/jsvc/native/tomcat.sh can be used as a
template for starting Tomcat automatically at boot time from /etc/
init.d. The file is currently setup for running Tomcat 4.1.x, so it
is necessary to edit it and change the classname from
BootstrapService to Bootstrap."

If only I'd known catalina.sh works 'out of the box' :-)
Section 1 of the docs - under the "Directories and Files" heading,
second paragraph -
"These are some of the key tomcat directories all relative to
$CATALINA_HOME
./bin - Startup, shutdown, and other scripts. The *.sh files (for
Unix systems) are functional duplicates of the *.bat files (for
Windows systems). Since the Win32 command-line lacks certain
functionality, there are some additional files in here."
HOWEVER - you're better off for having used jsvc.
"Out of the box" scrips run tc as root user.
Thanks Warren :-)
I guess I was overwhelmed with the sheer number of config files/
directories involved :) (startup.sh, catalina.sh, tomcat.sh?)
All sorted now though.
How can I update this page to help let people know there's an easier
option to get Tomcat using a startup script with catalina.sh rather
than tomcat5.sh?
Many thanks
Steve
