Hi, I installed apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src and jdk1.6.0_10. I'll run tomcat [root@dexter bin]# ./startup.sh Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src/temp Using JRE_HOME: /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_10/ And I go to my browser http://localhost:8080, error failed to connect. And I stop tomcat and I get this messages. [root@dexter bin]# ./shutdown.sh Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src/temp Using JRE_HOME: /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_10/ Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/startup/Bootstrap Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:307) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:301) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:252) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:320) Could not find the main class: org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.

Hi, Here's the log of catalina.out.

Hi, I think you,ve download a wrong version of tomcat in apache.org. You need to download the Binary Distributions not the Source Code Distributions if you install the java in binary (" java_ee_sdk-5_06-linux.bin"). I hope this can solve your problem. Regards,
Hi, the downloaded version was fine. I did resolve this after all. The problem was that the conf/ folder was missing the logging.properties file (which was due to my manipulation and setting up the server for multiple tomcat instances available to each user). Thanks, Tom
