rc.d startup script error

[Bastien Semene]

Hi list,

This is my first install of tomcat and I have an issue running it from 
the rc.d startup script.

I installed tomcat pretty easily following a nice how-to : 
http://www.calebscreek.com/2010/07/how-to-install-apache-tomcat-6-on-freebsd-8-0/

If I start tomcat from the startup script located at 
/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0/bin/startup.sh,
everything works fine and I have the "welcome page" viewable on port 8080.

If I start Tomcat using the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/tomcat7 script, It 
starts fine but an  error is thrown when I try to acces the "welcome page".
According to the logs I checked the Java/Tomcat global vars, but they 
seems correct.

The "path" seems empty, the file 
(/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0/work/Catalina/localhost/_/org/apache/jsp/index_jsp.java) 
is really non existent, but I don't know how to
change this path. And it should work fine as I modified nothing.
Everything I search on google says "rc.d startup script is fine" (in the 
newer versions of port).

Does anyone have an idea ?

Thx,

variables in rc.d/tomcat7 script :

tomcat7_java_version="${tomcat7_java_version:-"1.6+"}"
tomcat7_user="${tomcat7_user:-"www"}"
tomcat7_catalina_home="/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0"
tomcat7_catalina_base="${tomcat7_catalina_base:-"/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0"}"
tomcat7_catalina_tmpdir="${tomcat7_catalina_tmpdir:-"/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0/temp"}"
tomcat7_stdout_log="${tomcat7_stdout_log:-"/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0/logs/stdout.txt"}"
tomcat7_stderr_log="${tomcat7_stderr_log:-"/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0/logs/stderr.txt"}"
tomcat7_stop_timeout="${tomcat7_stop_timeout:-"10"}"



/usr/local/apache-tomcat-7.0/bin/startup.sh script output :

# ./bin/startup.sh
