[Artifactory-users] Cannot run with tomcat6: ARTIFACTORY_HOME is not set

[tinca <la....@gm...>]

I am following the wiki on how to deploy artifactory webapp.
I set ARTIFACTORY_HOME by using tomcat6's catalina.sh by defining
CATALINA_OPTS=-Dartifactory.home=/usr/local/artifactory-2.2.3/
The home does exist and contains what was unzipped.

On restarting tomcat stderr.log shows:

It seems Tomcat cannot determine the artifactory home. I am stuck here
having no idea what to do. Defining(and exporting) ARTIFACTORY_HOME in the
shell before running tomcat did not help either. I could not still find info
what could be behind tomcat not using CATALINA_OPTS (or catalina.sh) for
that matter.

This happens on FreeBSD 8.1.

Thanks in advance!
