[opencms-dev] AA Starting Tomcat under Linux

[nickm at absa.co.za]

Hi sigi
Thanks for the advice

BTW I am using SUSE 9.3 Linux.

I created a file tomcat in this path
/etc/init.d/tomcat

I placed these command in this tomcat file :

cd $CATALINA_home/bin
./startup.sh

And nothing happens the tomcat does not start

Do I need to change the ./startup.sh to just startup.sh

and/or do I need to make a change in another file to point to the tomcat
file ?

Regards
Nico

Which distribution of linux do you use? In my case (gentoo linux) I
added an
init script (/etc/init.d/tomcat5) and added this to the default
runlevel...
you can check the docs of your distri for how to add a service to the
default runlevel...
