The Web Interface Does not Come.



 Saada1.5 needs Java 1,6 (or Java6). As the Web interface is based on Java code (Servlets), the application server (Tomcat) must be compliant with Java 6 too. That can be checked at Tomcat starting time :

host:~/bin> startup.sh
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12/temp
Using JRE_HOME:       /usr/local/share/jdk1.6.0_05/

If JRE_HOME is a release lower than 6, Saada would never work. Tomcat can be run with Java 6 without specific system configuration. You just need to make the shell variable JAVA_HOME pointing on Java 6 and then to restart Tomcat

  • If you have Java 6 installed on your machine (e.g. in /usr/local/share/jre1.6.0_03) .
host:~/bin>setenv  JAVA_HOME /usr/local/share/jre1.6.0_03
host:~/bin> startup.sh
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12/temp
Using JRE_HOME:       /usr/local/share/jre1.6.0_03

Use appropriate setenv command according to your favorite Linux shell or click at the right place on Windows.

  • If you don’t have Java 6 on yur machine, you have it in Saada :
host:~/bin>setenv  JAVA_HOME SAADA_HOME/jtools/java
host:~/bin> startup.sh
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /home/michel/java/apache-tomcat-5.5.12/temp
Using JRE_HOME:       SAADA_HOME/jtools/java

SAADA_HOME is the Saada installation directory. In that case, take care to keep your Saada install in place. You also can use the java distribution of a SaadaDB instance (setenv JAVA_HOME SAADA_DB_HOME/jtools/java).
