If your JAVA_HOME points to your jdk (e.g./usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_33), your tools.jar configuration (${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar) indicates that there should be a tools jar with the following path: /usr/lib/jvm/lib/tools.jar.

If you change the tools jar path to ${java.home}/lib/tools.jar and verify that in your JAVA_HOME/lib there is the tools.jar file, it should work.

There you can find the related jira.
