Failed to install Tomcat

[anton_latvia]

Hi,
I am trying to install Tomcat on Centos 4.3 64-bit edition. Actually I simply selected it in "Addon modules" and waited until script finished. I can see, that there is file /usr/sbin/starttomcat, but when I execute it I don't get any output and no processes are started. I think I am missing something - can anyone tell me what? Should I install JSDK first?

Thanks in advance..

I opened support ticket, but haven't got any response for now. (2 days already)

damn! Does that mean I can not run Tomcat on 64-bit OS? Hm.. or may be there is 64-bit version for jsvc?

The problem is tomcat is stop at checking architecture x86_64 ...

The compilation of jsvc tell that x86_64 is not supported ... ...

If i go to /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/bin/jsvc-src and run ./configure ... i got the error:

configure: error: Unsupported CPU architecture "x86_64"


That´s the main problem, without jsvc cpanel cannot start tomcat ...

Please tell to us ... when cPanel support answers your question ...

C-ya,

cpanel said:

This was occuring due to issues between the jsvc source distributed with tomcat and x86_64 systems. I downloaded and installed the latest jsvc source, and was able to start tomcat after doing so.

jsvc-source download

I am wondering where exactly you downloaded this newer version from. I am trying to look in the tomcat distribution files and I am not seeing this.
