Hi there,
starting Tomcat from a path containing a pound sign (#) somewhere
results in a ClassNotFoundException.
I've checked this with
- Solaris Sparc/X86 + Mac OS X
- Java 5 + 6
- Tomcat 5.5.23 + 6.0.13
example:
- mkdir /export/home/markus/tomcat#1
- extract tomcat within this directory
- export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java (JDK 6)
- /export/home/markus/tomcat#1/apache-tomcat-6.0.13/bin/startup.sh
or
cd /export/home/markus/tomcat#1/apache-tomcat-6.0.13/bin ; ./startup.sh
output from catalina.sh with the java call (added set -x to catalina.sh
- i.e. no problem of the calling script omitting something)
/usr/java/bin/java

Although there is a rather old but maybe similar bug at:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4231042
i supose somewhere the road this has been fixed, as i have no problems
with JAVA 5/6 and other java programs otherwise my tests where flawed.
Installing the jdk in such a directory (e.g. /opt/java#6) works with
tomcat, too.
Can anybody confirm that "#" is still a special character (for tomcat)?
Unfortunately i'm somewhat forced to place tomcat installations/
instances into such (with #) directories.
Any fix possible?
thanks in advance!
kind regards,
Markus
