Can't Start Subsonic (Permission Problem?)

[ejmarino]

Hi! I'm installed Java5 and Tomcat using apt-get in my Ubuntu 6.06. I configured Tomcat to use Sun Java. When i dragged the subsonic war file, tomcat deployed it and tried to started it. next is a part of the exception it throwed:

[...]

I think it's an easy one for someone who knows (i hope)

Thanks!

Hi,

Sounds like you're starting Tomcat with the "-security" option. I suggest you remove that.

More info about "-security" on this blog: http://www.petrovic.org/blog/?p=134

Hope this helps,

You are right. i looked at /etc/init.d/tomcat5 init script that ubuntu made and change the security option.

Thanks
