jemboss installation question

Thu Mar 13 16:10:06 UTC 2003

Don´t worry about the firsts warnings ( is a common problem with the 
java interface an the Red Hat, for example ).

About the java errors: it seems you have a problem with the Tomcat or 
the Axis/SOAP installation.

- Tomcat is runnig for sure? you can execute properly the examples 
from your own tomcat installation?

- Look at the catalina.out logs under the tomcat installation, it 
gives you lot of information; look what is the port reserved for 
tomcat, other process are runnig on the same port?.

- If you have to run again the install script: check out the java 
environment variable.

- Install script:
"The script asks for the locations of the EMBOSS download, EMBOSS 
installation, Tomcat, Axis and Java directories. Axis is added to the 
Tomcat (copying soap.war to $TOMCAT/webapps/ )." Copy the soap.war 
again... and restart.
"The Jemboss server classes are added to the Tomcat CLASSPATH 
($TOMCAT/webapps/axis/WEB-INF/classes/)". Look at the classes 
directory, and check the symbolic links, they are pointing  the 
correct files?  Maybe is a path problem.

- Check out the jemboss.properties file under 
$EMBOSS_ROOT/share/EMBOSS/jemboss/resource/jemboss.properties.

Hope this helps, and excuse me, my english is terrible.
