Tomcat 5.5.17 troubles

[Guest niemda]

I've using Mandriva 2007.1 Powerpack and I installed tomcat 5.5.17 from repository. And I have troubles with it.

 

[niemda@ono-sendai ~]$ sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5 start
Starting tomcat5: /usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: Could not find
jdbc-stdext Java extension for this JVM
/usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: Could not find jndi Java extension

Using CATALINA_HOME:   /usr/share/tomcat5
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/share/tomcat5/temp
Using JRE_HOME:

[niemda@ono-sendai ~]$

 

tomcat starting but doesn't work.

 

config file

 

# tomcat5 service configuration file

# you could also override JAVA_HOME here
# Where your java installation lives
JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/default/"

# this is 1.6 Java installed from sun package from sun.com

# You can pass some parameters to java
# here if you wish to
#JAVA_OPTS="-Xminf0.1 -Xmaxf0.3"

# Use JAVA_OPTS to set java.library.path for libtcnative.so
#JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib

# Where your tomcat installation lives
# That change from previous RPM where TOMCAT_HOME
# used to be /var/tomcat.
# Now /var/tomcat will be the base for webapps only
CATALINA_HOME="/usr/share/tomcat5"
JASPER_HOME="/usr/share/tomcat5"
CATALINA_TMPDIR="/usr/share/tomcat5/temp"
JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS="/usr/share/tomcat5/common/endorsed"

# What user should run tomcat
TOMCAT_USER="tomcat"

# You can change your tomcat locale here
#LANG=en_US

# Time to wait in seconds, before killing process
SHUTDOWN_WAIT=30

# Set the TOMCAT_PID location
CATALINA_PID=/var/run/tomcat5.pid

# If you wish to further customize your tomcat environment,
# put your own definitions here
# (i.e. LD_LIBRARY_PATH for some jdbc drivers)
# Just do not forget to export them :)

 

I also use NetBeans 5.5 with tomcat 5.5.17 bundled. Bundled version of tomcat works fine (with same Java).

 

Thanks for your help.

Hi niemda,

 

your first log extract reflects that tomcat would not start but raise java errors. Which jre did you install? I can recommend the java-1.6.0-sun package(s) from non-free repository.
