hi

/usr/lib/java/bin/java -mx64M -classpath 
opencms.jar:xerces.jar:mysql.jar:/usr/lib/java/lib/classes.zip com.opencms.core.CmsSh
ell config/opencms.properties < config/cmssetup.txt

the classpath should be the absolute path for each *.jar. for example:

... -classpath /usr/local/http/htdocs/servlets/opencms/opencms.jar:/usr/local/http/htdocs/servlets/ExternalComponents/xerces.jar....

this should be help.
