Specify JDK for tomcat7

rated 0 times [ 80] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 94228 / 2 Years ago, sat, august 27, 2022, 8:08:23

I have installed tomcat7 (using apt-get install) and whenever I want to start tomcat7 it says :

* no JDK found - please set JAVA_HOME

I have set JAVA_HOME in my bash.bashrc and also in ~/.bashrc and when I issue echo $JAVA_HOME I clearly see that this variable is pointing to my jdk's root folder. Can someone help me with this please?

Thanks

You can try this:

Just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command below.

gksudo gedit /etc/default/tomcat7

When the file opens, uncomment the line that sets the JAVA_HOME variable.

Save and restart tomcat7 server.
