| Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat uses the <code class="literal">JAVA_HOME</code> environment variable to locate the <code class="literal">java</code> |
| executable. Configure this environment variable to point to the home directory of the Java 6 installation on your computer. |

| As a convenience it is recommended that you create an environment variable that points |
| to the Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat installation directory. Note that the Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat does not require that |
| such an environment variable has been set. This variable may have any name of your |
| choosing. The Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat’s documentation assumes that the variable is named |
| <code class="literal">SERVER_HOME</code>. |
| </p></div><div class="section" title="Linux"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a name="installation-post-env-server-linux"></a>Linux</h4></div></div></div><p> |
| Edit the <code class="literal">.profile</code> file in your home directory to |
| add the <code class="literal">SERVER_HOME</code> and <code class="literal">JAVA_HOME</code> environment variables. For |
| example, if you installed into <code class="literal">/opt</code>: |
| </p><pre class="screen">export SERVER_HOME=/opt/virgo-web-server-3.5.0/ |
| export JAVA_HOME=/user/java/jdk1.6.0_17 |
| export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH</pre><p> |
| To verify the setting of <code class="literal">JAVA_HOME</code>, issue the command <code class="literal">$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version</code> from a new terminal window |
| and ensure that the command completes successfully and reports |
| a Java version <code class="literal">1.6.</code><span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> (denoting Java 6) or greater. |

| This section shows how to add <code class="literal">SERVER_HOME</code> as a system variable on Windows. Follow the same procedure to add or update the <code class="literal">JAVA_HOME</code> environment variable. |
| </p><p> |
| From the Start menu, open the Control Panel and double-click on ‘System’. |
| </p><p> |
| <img src="images/system-props.png"> |
| </p><p> |
| Click the ‘Advanced’ tab and select ‘Environment Variables’. Next, |
| click the ‘New’ button in the ‘System Variables’ section. |
| </p><p> |
| <img src="images/env-variables.png"> |
| </p><p> |
| This will display the ‘New System Variable’ window. Enter |
| <code class="literal">SERVER_HOME</code> as the ‘Variable name’ and |
| the installation directory as the ‘Variable value’. Click OK. |
| </p><p> |
| <img src="images/system-variable.png"> |
| </p><p> |
| To verify the setting of <code class="literal">JAVA_HOME</code>, issue the command <code class="literal">"%JAVA_HOME%"\bin\java -version</code> from |
| a new command prompt and ensure that the command completes successfully and reports |
| a Java version <code class="literal">1.6.</code><span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> (denoting Java 6) or greater. |

| When starting Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat on some variants of Windows you might encounter a problem with file permissions. |
| The error looks like this. |
| </p><pre class="screen">WARNING: jmxPermissions.vbs did not update the permissions of C:\virgo\configuration\org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.jmxremote.access.properties. Check the file has the correct permissions.</pre><p> |
| If VTS starts correctly (see <a class="xref" href="ch07.html" title="Chapter 7. Starting and Stopping Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat">Starting and Stopping Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat</a>) you can skip this section and carry on. However to secure your |
| installation you have to set correct permissions. To do so, go to the ‘configuration’ directory of the installation |
| in Windows Explorer. |
| </p><p> |
| <img src="images/install-windows-1-FileListing.png"> |
| </p><p> |
| Right click on the ‘org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.jmxremote.access.properties’ file and view its properties, |
| then select the ‘Security’ tab. Remove all groups and users from the list and select ‘Apply’. |
| </p><p> |
| <img src="images/install-windows-2-SecuritySettings.png"> |
| </p><p> |
| Within the security page select the ‘Advanced’ options. On the ‘Owner’ tab, choose the owner |
| that you are trying to run the VTS as and select ‘Apply’. |
| </p><p> |
| <img src="images/install-windows-3-AdvanceSettingsOwner.png"> |
| </p><p> |
| Once this is done select ‘OK’ to return to the ‘Security’ tab |
| and now add the owner to the list of groups and users that have permission to access the file. |
| </p><p> |
| <img src="images/install-windows-4-AllSetReadAndExecute.png"> |
| </p><p> |
| Once all these steps are complete you can proceed to start the VTS. |
