Error During installation of tomcat in linux

[991974]

Hai Friends!

I m facing some difficulties during installation of tomcat in linux redhat enterprise edition-3. i installed apache-tomcat-5.5.17 and jre-1-5-0-07-linux-i586.bin under root directory.

My Env Variables settings are,

JAVA_HOME=/root/jre1.5.0.07
CATALINA_HOME=/root/apache-tomcat-5.5.17
path=$JAVA_HOME/bin
CLASSPATH=$CATALINA_HOME/bin/bootstrap.jar:$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/servlet-api.jar


If i start the server it showing the following error:

$CATALINA_HOME/root/apache-tomcat-5.5.17/bin/startup.sh
cannot find /root/apache-tomcat-5.5.17/bin/catalina.sh
this file is needed to run this path


But catalina.sh file will be available under the same path.

pls,suggest me urs valuable ideas..

thank you

Regards
Babu

Its a mistake to install and run tomcat and java as root - you should choose another user. But never mind.

You should execute this :

$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh

rather than this :

$CATALINA_HOME/root/apache-tomcat-5.5.17/bin/startup.sh
