Two things. First, copy the contents of 'jboss_native/bin' to 'jboss_home/bin' as is. Second, I looked in catalina.sh and do not see the same code that appears in run.sh for JBoss AS, the code that checks for JBoss Native shared objects and modifies the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. So two possibilities come to mind: a) Modify catalina.sh to do the shared library check like run.sh does b) set LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running startup.sh View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4204105#...
