Troubleshooting Check List

Are you checking this page because something went wrong? Verify you did each of the steps listed below.

The PATH variable includes the JDK bin directory:

Windows:
C:\> set PATH=%PATH%;C:\jdk1.4\bin

UNIX Korn Shell:
$ PATH=/opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.04/bin/bin:$PATH
$ export PATH

JDK 1.3 or higher is installed:
```
java -version
```

JAVA_HOME is set to the root location of your JDK installation:

Windows:
C:\> set JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.4

UNIX Korn Shell:
$ JAVA_HOME=/opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.04
$ export JAVA_HOME

CLASSPATH includes the Fortune Server jar files:

Windows:
C:\> set CLASSPATH=%FORTUNE_HOME%\lib\derby.jar;
    %FORTUNE_HOME%\lib\derbytools.jar;
    %FORTUNE_HOME%\lib\commons-math-1.0-RC1.jar;
    %FORTUNE_HOME%\lib\jakarta-regexp-1.3.jar;%CLASSPATH%

UNIX Korn Shell:
$ CLASSPATH=$FORTUNE_HOME/lib/derby.jar:
    $FORTUNE_HOME/lib/derbytools.jar: 
    $FORTUNE_HOME/lib/commons-math-1.0-RC1.jar:
    $FORTUNE_HOME/lib/jakarta-regexp-1.3.jar:$CLASSPATH
$ export CLASSPATH

Verify that the CLASSPATH includes the Derby jars:
```
java org.apache.derby.tools.sysinfo
```

Verify that Derby can find the fortunes database and the Jakarta jar files:

Windows:
java -Dderby.system.home=%FORTUNE_HOME% org.apache.derby.tools.ij

UNIX:
java -Dderby.system.home=$FORTUNE_HOME org.apache.derby.tools.ij

Run these SQL statements:
connect 'jdbc:derby:fortunes';
select count(*) from fortunes;
values tutRand(1,500);
values tutMatch('abc', 'a');

CATALINA_HOME is set to the root location of the Tomcat install:

Windows:
C:\> set CATALINA_HOME=C:\tomcat\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28

UNIX Korn Shell:
$ CATALINA_HOME=/home/jta/Jakarta/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28
$ export CATALINA_HOME

Tomcat works by itself. Start Tomcat, then connect to your browser:
```
http://localhost:8080
```

Copy Fortune Server jars to Tomcat:


Windows:
C:\> copy %FORTUNE_HOME%\lib\* %CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib

UNIX Korn Shell:
$ cp $FORTUNE_HOME/lib/* $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib
