      ./startup.sh 

but when i enter the ./startup.sh command i get an error

      Cannot find /Library/Tomcat/Home/bin/setclasspath.sh

but the setclasspath.sh is there (see screenshot below):

What am i doing wrong????

here is the path info:

Answer 1

I had same problem on my mountain lion machine and I use this command :

$ unset CATALINA_HOME

and after that it solved my problem.This command will unset the environmental variable CATALINA_HOME.

Answer 2

just run: $ unset CATALINA_HOME in Terminal, and it works again.

Answer 3

Please RESET the CATALINA_HOME to point to correct path. That should resolved the problem. for example; currently it might be at "/usr/share/tomcat6/" but you need to verify & point till the correct directory like "/usr/share/tomcat6/apache-tomcat-6.0.37/"

Answer 4

Its because of permission, you can run this using root $ sudo pathtotomcat/bin/./startup.sh

Answer 5

I too had similar issue and I am able to resolve it by simply changing the file permission of tomcat folder . Make it read and Write for everyone. And sh startup.sh command would work fine with Tomcat/7.0.34

I got this solution from here

To make all scripts runnable:

sudo chmod +x /Library/Tomcat/bin/*.sh

I hope it solves your issue too.
