Summary: Tomcat5 / 55 does not start
Product: openSUSE 10.3
Version: Final
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Development

Neither Tomcat5 nor Tomcat55 does a successful start after installation or from
Yast/System/Services.

The /usr/share/tomcat5(5)/start.log file says something like "no JAVA_HOME
defined"
There is a NEW FILE not in the 10.2 version called
/etc/tomcat5(5)/tomcat5(5).conf
and in there there is a BLANK entry for JAVA_HOME which turns out to have to be
something like
/usr/lib/jvm/java
or
/usr/lib64/jvm/java
which is hardly intuitive for any Java developer I have met, however...
Set this and it all starts OK...
