Re: Trouble installng Tomcat on (Debian) Linux
Thanks for the information. I really need to get this going, and it should
be simple(!).
I had originally installed the tomcat.deb package, and it required several
other packages, one was the ibm-jdk1.1-installer, which sent me to IBM, and
there I got the required packages for it. I think that is how I got Kaffe
installed. (are the dependencies in the Debian Tomcat package wrong?)
Anyway, I de-installed all IBM stuff, and kaffe, and got jdk1.1 and
jdk1.1-dev from Debian, and now when I run it I can't get servlets to run,
nor .jsp's.
If there is a more simple method, or if I am dong something wrong, just let
me know!!
I now get:
Internal Server Error

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@omega.cs.mum.edu and

Suggestions?
Other questions or points:
Where should I get jsdk from? ibm had j2sdk, but I don't see anything from
(at) Debian.

Tomcat from the Debian package runs its HTTP listener on port 8081 (that's
because 8080 is used by some other packages like junkbuster), so you
have to access the pages as http://localhost:8081/.
-- I used it via Apache, and mod_jserv, so I assume that I do not have to
use this alternate port, that would be for standalone service.

Please use a never package version - this problem was fixed in 1.1-3 which
is also in the release Debian 2.1.
-- How would I get the new(er) mod_jserv; I got the latest from:
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/bin/linux/i386/
The only one I find at Debian is in jserv, which is mutually exclusive with
tomcat. Where would I get the newer version?
The AJP12 listener is disabled in the Debian package, you have to enable
it in /etc/tomcat/server.xml. T
-- thanks, done.
-- I re-installed your tomcat again, thinking it may be happier now without
IBM, but I get lots of errors (below),
A few are surprising to me;
1) Error generating automatic IIS configuration
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /usr/share/tomcat/conf/iis
_redirect.reg-auto
[isn't IIS the NT web server connector?]
[ the file is there]
2) Unable to open log file: /usr/share/tomcat/logs/servlet.log!
[the file was there, but owned by root, bad permissions?]
3) the file /usr/share/tomcat/work does exist, but should it be owned by
www-data?
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 7 20:47
/usr/share/tomcat/work
Thanks for any help, or advice.
