I am trying to run the application servers JRUN and Tomcat from MyEclipse but I am getting the following error for both of them. Please help.

Error Starting JRun: A configuration error occured during startup. Please verify the preference field with the prompt: Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, rc = 509

and same thing for Tomcat

Error Starting Tomcat: A configuration error occured during startup. Please verify the preference field with the prompt: Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, rc = 509

Thank you

Can you please post all the information we request in the [URL=http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-393.html]Posting Guidelines[/URL] thread at the top of this forum? That will give us some context so that we can determine if this is an installation issue, a configuration problem, or a bug. Thanks.

Hi, I am having the exact same problem. I can launch JRun 4 in Run mode but not in debug mode. I am trying to run Jrun 4 with the 1.4.2.04 and 1.4.2.12 jdk’s and both do not work. It works with jdk1.5.x but I need to test my application with 1.4.x.

Please, anyone, I need help…

Doesn’t JRun4 install it’s own JDK, you should be using that to run it with if it does. See if that helps.

[David Cloutier]

No, Jrun4 dows not come with a JDK, only a JRE ??? I don’t know why but hey, it’s not the 1st wierd thing I’ve noticed about JRun.

[Riyad Kalla]

As a workaround can you run it with JDK 5, I believe as long as you don’t turn on Java 5 source support, you don’t have to worry about Java 5 features (like generics, enums, etc.) sneaking into your code.

Does that provide a workaround for you or not really?

[David Cloutier]

The problem with jdk5 is that when I use deprecated tags in my application, the jsps don’t compile. So, to use jdk5 I’d have to go in and change a lot of jsps.

[Scott Anderson]

Feras,

Can you start JRun or Tomcat from the commandline, or do you get the same error?

[David Cloutier]

I can start JRun manually fine, I can even start it in MyEclipse in a normal “Run” mode. It’s only in “debug” mode that I get this error.

Please help, the JDK1.5 is causing me some headaches!

[David Cloutier]

I found the problem. I had tried to run Tomcat 5.5 with JDK5 and I think that I changed my PATH setting to point to JDK_HOME\bin instead of JRE_HOME\bin, but the JDK bin does not have the ‘dt_socket.dll’ and ‘dt_shmem.dll’ files, only the JRE bin has those files.

I changed my PAHT variable to include the JRE_HOME\bin and it solved my problem.

Thanks for the help.

Dave.
