I'd basically fit into the "generalist" camp, and I'm probably begging for pain since I'm messing around with the whole 1.4/1.5 business (and screwing it up royally along the way). However, this morning I have a different curious issue: umask and tomcat. I have 5.5.17-r1 installed, running with sun-jdk-1.5.0.07. The tomcat-5.5 init.d script uses start-stop-daemon to get the thing up and running, ignoring the traditional startup.sh script that's in tomcat's bin dir. Curiously, the version running using start-stop-daemon is completely ignoring the system umask (002 - I'd like to make deployed webapps automatically group-writeable), but running the startup.sh script uses it. Any ideas? I don't want to have to hack the startup script to call startup.sh if possible. Thanks, Jesse -- gentoo-java@gentoo.org mailing list
