Re: AS/400 and Java (Tomcat on AS400)

["David Morris" <David.Morris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bruce,

You said unzip and copy but just to be sure did you download the exe
version? I have done that and couldn't get it to start because it was
already running as a service. You can check that by running from a
cmd line: net start

If you see Apache Tomcat 4.1, try running: net stop Apache Tomcat 4.1

If you have digester.jar or beanutils.jar in any WEB-INF/lib directory,
copy
the version that came with Tomcat 4.1.12 into that directory, it is
important
that they be the same version. Also, you might check your ext directory
to
make sure it doesn't have a parser.

You are more likely to find the root cause of startup errors in the log
files.

Hi David:



I installed Tomcat 1.1.12 on AS/400 today (stand alone mode). Thanks
for the
scripts that I downloaded from your web site. The first time it took a
few
minutes to start because it was attaching java programs to all the jar
files. Subsequent starts take about 1 minute.

I installed the same Tomcat (unzip and copy) on 4 computers: AS400,
win95,
win2000, winXP.  Only the one on win2000 refuses to run. Here are some
discussions on this in case someone knows a solution:
