[Bug 427394] [NEW] tomcat5.5 failed when started via daemon for a particular application, but work when using catalina.sh

[alan]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tomcat5.5

I am using Ubuntu 9.04 with tomcat 5.5.26-5ubuntu

You can find the application I am working on at
https://cselnx4.dl.ac.uk/download

I found this:

tomcat5.5 (5.5.20-3) experimental; urgency=low

  * Really fix the "/etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 status" command this
    time. (Closes: #398044)
  * Use jsvc for daemon startup, instead of the catalina.sh script. Daemon
    shutdown is now faster and more reliable.
  * Add missing permissions required by the admin webapp. Thanks to
    Jonathan-Marc Lapointe.
  * The CATALINA_OPTS variable in /etc/default/tomcat5.5 has been renamed
    to the more intuitive JAVA_OPTS.

If I use /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 start than my application returns (at http://localhost:8180/pims/):

HTTP Status 404 -

type Status report

message

description The requested resource () is not available.
Apache Tomcat/5.5

If I use, as root:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
/usr/share/tomcat5.5/bin/catalina.sh start

Than my application works fine at http://localhost:8180/pims/

In the end, the deamon is executing this command:

/usr/bin/jsvc -cp /usr/share/java/commons-
daemon.jar:/usr/share/tomcat5.5/bin/bootstrap.jar -outfile SYSLOG
-errfile SYSLOG -pidfile /var/run/tomcat5.5.pid -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-XX:+CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled
-Djava.awt.headless=true
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=/usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/endorsed
-Dcatalina.base=/var/lib/tomcat5.5 -Dcatalina.home=/usr/share/tomcat5.5
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp -Djava.security.manager
-Djava.security.policy=/var/lib/tomcat5.5/conf/catalina.policy
-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager
-Djava.util.logging.config.file=/var/lib/tomcat5.5/conf/logging.properties
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap

and catalina.sh is doing:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java
-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager
-Djava.util.logging.config.file=/usr/share/tomcat5.5/conf/logging.properties
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=/usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/endorsed -classpath
:/usr/share/tomcat5.5/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/share/tomcat5.5/bin
/commons-logging-api.jar -Dcatalina.base=/usr/share/tomcat5.5
-Dcatalina.home=/usr/share/tomcat5.5
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/usr/share/tomcat5.5/temp
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start

I frankly have no further idea of why the deamon command doesn't work
and I sincerely appreciate any help here.

Cheers,
Alan
