Problem with JAVA_HOME environment variable

[Hydromodeler]

Hello All,

I am trying to install Scalix 11.4.1 on an Ubuntu 8.04 machine using Tih's installer from the Wiki. Tih's Python script is written for v11.4.0, so i modified it a little to install 11.4.1. Everything appears to be installing correctly (no errors at least) except for maybe scalix-tomcat, which gives me an error about not being able to start because it requires the JAVA_HOME environment variable to be set. As far as I can tell it is set.

echo $JAVA_HOME returns /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun (I am not at my machine right now so the last part might be wrong, but it points to the correct location, I think)

I read on some other forum someone had better luck using the JDK than the JRE so I installed that and set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to it, and still no luck.

Any suggestions for setting up scalix-tomcat to recognize JAVA_HOME? Or is this message caused by something else?

Thanks.

Matt

If this server is going into production, here's my advice.

CentOS, RHEL, SLES.

That's not helpful to your problem now, I know, but it will be the most helpful answer you will receive, even if someone else resolves your install problem on *buntu/Debian/whatever.
