Tomcat 6.0.35 installation on Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9

I am trying to install apache-tomcat-6.0.35 on Mac OS x 10.9, but I have this error in catalina.out when I run startup.sh :

/Library/Tomcat/Home/bin/catalina.sh: line 375: /Library/Java/Home/bin/java: No such file or directory

And thus, the server isn't launched.

Here is what I get in terminal (bash) :

myMac:bin administrator$ ./startup.sh

Using CATALINA_BASE:   /Library/Tomcat/Home
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /Library/Tomcat/Home
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /Library/Tomcat/Home/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /Library/Java/Home
Using CLASSPATH:       /Library/Tomcat/Home/bin/bootstrap.jar

Any advice?

I had the same issue, and I've made it work under OS X 10.9, with Java 6 (1.6.0_37-b06-434).

As it was complaining about a wrong path in Java in the catalina.out, I changed all the paths to my JRM in setclasspath.sh :

Old path :

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current

New path :

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0_37-b06-434.jdk/Contents/Home

There were 3 places affected :

if [ -z "$JAVA_HOME" -a -z "$JRE_HOME" ]; then
  # Bugzilla 37284 (reviewed).
  if $darwin; then
    if [ -d "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0_37-b06-434.jdk/Contents/Home" ]; then
      export JAVA_HOME="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0_37-b06-434.jdk/Contents/Home"
    fi

[...]

# OSX hack to CLASSPATH
JIKESPATH=
if [ `uname -s` = "Darwin" ]; then
  OSXHACK="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0_37-b06-434.jdk/Contents/Home"

[...]

As you can see, the code already export JAVA_HOME, so no need to export it in .bash_profile here.

It seems the issue is related to your JAVA_HOME environment variable. Check to see if it is correctly set. To verify, run javac -version or which java on the command line to see which version of java is set and is the correct one that should be used.
