Linux下tomcat 6 启动出现日志异常

./startup.sh

 Using CATALINA_BASE:   /software/apache-tomcat-6.0.18 
 Using CATALINA_HOME:  /software/apache-tomcat-6.0.18
 Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /software/apache-tomcat-6.0.18/temp
 Using JRE_HOME:  /usr

用命令：
ps -ef | grep tomcat

查看没有tomcat进程。

查看tomcat日志信息，出现了下面的错误：
WARNING: error instantiating 'org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager' referenced by java.util.logging.manager, class not found
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager not found
>>No stacktrace available>>;
WARNING: error instantiating '1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler,' referenced by handlers, class not found
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler,
>>No stacktrace available>>;
Exception during runtime initialization
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
>>No stacktrace available>>;
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
>>No stacktrace available>>;

最终解决办法：
用命令设置JAVA_HOME环境变量：
export JAVA_HOME=/software/jdk1.5.0_4/
进入 %tomcat%/bin/

./startup.sh

启动成功！
