Set path to Tomcat servlet container?

**Dillinger4** · Oct 31st, 2004, 07:16 PM

According to the Tomat docs Catalina is the name of the servlet container which needs its path to be set in the autoexec.bat file.
When i try to start up the server i get a message saying the CATALINA_HOME env variable is not defined correctly.
Does this look right?

Code:

SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 T2
SET SNDSCAPE=C:\WINDOWS
SET JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.4.2
SET PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%
SET CATALINA_HOME=C:\Jakarta\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.12

@SET CLASSPATH=C:\;C:\Java LF Graphics Repositoryjlfgr-1_0.jar;
C:\j2sdk1.4.1_05\jre\lib\ext\mysql-commector-java-3.0.14-production-bin.jar;

All these are set via DOS. Everything is working fine so far. Does anyone know if these remain if the server is taken down then restarted?

Code:

C:\> set JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.4.2
C:\> set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%
C:\Jakarta> set CATALINA_HOME=C:\Jakarta\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28

They don't. Set them in Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variables.

That's what i did in the first place. If i dont get it to work dosent matter. Ill just set it on the fly, get the server up and leave it up.
