[Geoserver-users] geoserver on osx "client"

Hi,

(the first step needed to install geoserver on osx 10.4.8 intel)
i'm tring to install tomcat
i've downloaded the 5.0.28
  binary package
  core : zip file

i've copiyed it in :
/source/jakarta-tomcat-5/

and i added this line to my .bash_profile :

export CATALINA_HOME=/source/jakarta-tomcat-5/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28

  i type in the bash shell :

chmod a+x /source/jakarta-tomcat-5/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/bin/startup.sh

and then i tried to start tomcat using :

$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh

but i've this log :

Cannot find /source/jakarta-tomcat-5/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/bin/catalina.sh
This file is needed to run this program

what i'm wrong ?
the file "catalina.sh" is in the right path :
/source/jakarta-tomcat-5/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/bin/catalina.sh

thanks a lot for your help!
Massimo.

I just did it a few weeks ago and I wish I had taken better notes.

From memory; install Tomcat (I am using 5.0.28) and make sure it is

working. I do not remember any problems there. Use the
geoserver-1.4-war.zip (not geoserver-1.4-bin, and I would avoid 1.5 at
first as it has additional requirements)

un-zip and un-pack the war, then drag geoserver into web-apps directory.

Restart Tomcat, and try localhost:8080/geoserver

I seem to recall changing something in web.xml or server.xml, but it
was not entirely specific to geoserver.

I got it running without undue effort on OS X 10.4.8, if you have
problems please post specific details.

Could be permissions?

Try a 'chmod 775' to catalina.sh
