Installing Quickbuild-1.0 #14

drclark ·
I followed the installation readme steps, and unpacked the tar file to a directory and tried to execute the <quickbuild-install>/bin/startup.sh script. I see the following:

Using CATALINA_BASE: /home/clark/apps/quickbuild-1.0/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME: /home/clark/apps/quickbuild-1.0/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /home/clark/apps/quickbuild-1.0/tomcat/temp
Using JAVA_HOME: /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_05

Then nothing happens. I try port 8080 with a browser, but nothing is running on port 8080. I have tried this on a Mac OSX 10.4 box as well as an AIX 5.2 box. Both do the same thing. From what I can tell Tomcat isn't starting... but I have no idea why.

Have I missed something obvious?

Can you paste out tomcat log? It resides in <quickbuild install>/tomcat/logs directory.

Hmmm... looks pretty explanatory to me-

Due to new licensing guidelines mandated by the Apache Software
Foundation Board of Directors, a JMX implementation can no longer
be distributed with the Apache Tomcat binaries. As a result, you
must download a JMX 1.2 implementation (such as the Sun Reference
Implementation) and copy the JAR containing the API and
implementation of the JMX specification to:
${catalina.home}/bin/jmx.jar


This was in there three times over. I assume because I've tried to start it around that many times. Am I getting something weird here, or does there need to be some additional content added to the install instructions? I haven't used Tomcat much, but I'm assuming this is a recent development. I'll download and install the jmx implementation and give it a try.

Thanks for the info. Instructions will be updated to reflect this.

Regards.
