How to start tomcat with jsvc?

Question

I\'m trying to start tomcat with jsvc but it gives me this strange error

JSVC re-exec requires execution with an absolute or relative path

Answer 1

I run Tomcat by double-click startup.sh file on $CATALINA_HOME/bin folder. After that, I enter this URL http://localhost:8080/ in the browser and it runs.

Answer 2

Just ran into this error myself. In my case, using the absolute path to jsvc --- /usr/bin/jsvc on my machine --- fixed it.
