BASEDIR environment not define error and its solution
Are you working on J2EE with Tomcat?
Trying to run Tomcat from the command line and got this problem?
I got this while working on apache-tomcat 7.
Here is how I solved it.
The basedir environment will complain if you have either the JAVA_HOME and/or the CATALINA_HOME paths are not correctly set on the environment variables.
where to get the environment variable? -> in /etc/environment.
Once you make sure paths are set correctly, the next would be allowing the shell scripts to have the executable permissions.
Basically I would do
sudo chmod 777 -R /PATH/TO/TOMCAT/bin
This, as you know is not advisable if for production or networked environments as it will allow all to execute.
Now, you should be able to startup tomcat as
./startup.sh by going into the tomcat’s bin folder.
