Re: On one particular box, Tomcat 7.0.25 runs just fine, but 7.0.47 crashes on takeoff -- some authority problem

Your user needs x permission on startup.sh in order to execute it.
The user draws that authority from owner, group or public which are
the three groupings of rwx authorities you see, in that order (the
first of the 10 characters are - for file or d for directory). If
theres a dash in one of the spots where you expect rwx, that
permission has not been granted.

Except that according to the "ls -l startup.sh" results, *nobody* has "x" authority to *either* the new *or* old startup.sh, on *any* box.
<customer box>/wintouch/tomcat/bin/startup.sh is -rw-rw-rw-
<customer box>/wintouch/tomcat.bak/bin/startup.sh is -rw-rw-rw-
<our box>/wintouch/tomcat/bin/startup.sh is -rw-rw-rw-
<our box>/wintouch/tomcat.bak/bin/startup.sh is -rw-rw-rw-

yet only the first one fails.
