java 1.6.0 and tomcat 5

[Florez, Nestor]

Forgot to mentioned that I am using rhel 5.6

My /usr/bin/java is a link that points to /etc/alternatives/java

The command "alternatives --config java" returns with 
/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/bin/java

JAVA_HOME in tomcat5.conf points to /usr/lib/jvm/java

everything points to a different java.
What is the correct java to point to on rhel5

When I tried to start tomcat5, it does not start and I get
# service tomcat5 start
Starting tomcat5: lock file found but no process running for
pid 1232, continuing
/usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: Could not find servlet Java extension for this JVM
/usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: Some detected jars were not found for this jvm 

All of this happened when I "yum erase tomcat5" and "yum erase java-1.6.0"
and then I installed then again.

THANKS!!!

A few ways:

1. you could symlink, something like so (change the location of the java 1.6 binary though):

ln -s /usr/java_1.6/bin/java /usr/lib/java/bin/java

2. specify the JAVA_HOME variable in tomcat.conf

Hi there,

I am trying to get tomcat5 running with java 1.6.0 I "yum install tomcat5" and my java is #java -version java version "1.6.0_20"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.8) (rhel-1.22.1.9.8.el5_6-x86_64) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)

#tomcat5 version
Found JAVA_HOME: /usr/lib/java
Please complete your /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf so we won't have to look for it next time
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /usr
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /usr
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/temp
Using JRE_HOME:
/usr/bin/dtomcat5: line 362: /usr/lib/java/bin/java: No such file or directory

What do I need to do to run tomcat5 and java 1.6.0?

Thanks,

Néstor :)
