What Tomcat requires in JAVA_HOME is the base directory of the Java installation. If you want to use alternatives to control the location of Java then try setting JAVA_HOME to /etc/alternatives/java_sdk. Othterwise set it to the base directory where the RPM installed Java. BTW, I presume you have installed openjdk-devel. AFAIK Tomcat requires a Java compiler to compile JSP and you want that compiler to match the JVM runtime. You most definitely do not want it to be some gcj abomination. -- Nigel Wade, System Administrator, Space Plasma Physics Group, University of Leicester, Leicester, LE1 7RH, UK E-mail : nmw@xxxxxxxxxxxx Phone : +44 (0)116 2523548, Fax : +44 (0)116 2523555 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
