Most of the time many \u00a0people choose \u00a0to install Java sdk in \/usr\/java\u00a0\u00a0 directory.\u00a0\u00a0 After installing Tomact <\/a>(\u00a0asking \u00a0jakarta\u00a0 tomact<\/a> ? or apache tomcat ?…. I think both are same\u00a0\u00a0 apache is group of projects and jakarta\u00a0 is one of those projects name) , We may need to\u00a0set the path of java home directory other wise\u00a0tomcat will not start , it just shows the error messgae “The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined”.<\/p>\n

[root@centcmd bin]# .\/startup.sh<\/span><\/em>
\n The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined<\/em><\/span>
\n This environment variable is needed to run this program<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Here is how i set the environment varaible for java home…<\/p>\n

To set the java home directory \u00a0type the command from terminal<\/p>\n

export JAVA_HOME=”\/path\/to\/java\/home” <\/span><\/p>\n

in my case it is….<\/p>\n

[root@centcmd bin]#\u00a0export JAVA_HOME=”\/usr\/java\/jdk1.6.0_26″<\/span><\/p>\n

to set the path of java commands<\/p>\n

export PATH=”\/path\/to\/java\/bin:$PATH”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

in my case it is ….<\/p>\n

[root@centcmd bin]# export PATH=”\/usr\/java\/jdk1.6.0_26\/bin:$PATH”\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

After setting up java path just run the command \u00a0[root@centcmd bin]# cat ~\/ .bash_profile<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

which should display the \u00a0entries of JAVA PATH.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If we need to set java home and path , we need to edit\u00a0\/etc\/profile.d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

without opening profile.d in editors like vi , we can just type these commands directly on terminal<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

to set Java home<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

[root@centcmd bin]#<\/span>echo ‘export JAVA_HOME=\/usr\/java\/jdk1.6.0_26’>\/etc\/profile.d\/jdk.sh<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

[root@centcmd bin]#<\/span>echo ‘export PATH=$JAVA_HOME\/bin:$PATH’>>\/etc\/profile.d\/jdk.sh<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

now we need to set the source file for java<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

[root@centcmd bin]#<\/span>source \/etc\/profile.d\/jdk.sh<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

now java home has been set for all the users .<\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/p>\n

now if you type the command \u00a0java -version<\/em><\/span> \u00a0 it should show the version of your java \u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\n
