无法在32位Ubuntu 14.04上启动Tomcat7

Question

I'm running a VirtualBox of a 32-bit version of Ubuntu 14.04. When attempting to run sudo service tomcat7 start I get the following message.

start-stop-daemon: unable to stat /usr/lib/jvm/java-t-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java

It then returns saying the server has started.

After running service tomcat7 status I get the following:

Tomcat servlet engine is running with pid

Notice that there is no pid shown, which doesn't make any sense to me.

Regardless, this all ends up in the servlet not actually running when I attempt to navigate to localhost/.

I have no idea why it is looking for 64 bit java on a 32 bit install. I have everything else (to my knowledge) installed properly. I've uninstalled/reinstalled tomcat and java to no avail.

Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

check the version of java using java -version. you will get the architecture of java. Make sure that you have installed the 32 bit jre properly. (My recommendation is to use oracle jre instead open jre). Try to download the tomcat from their site as .tar.gz. Extract it somewhere in your system. Locate the startup.sh script ,by default it will be present in bin folder of tomcat, and execute the script.

Hope it helps!!
