OFBiz on external tomcat

[Weikun]

Hi All,

I'm trying to deploy OFBiz on external tomcat now. I'm currently following the instructions on

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBTECH/Tomcat

to install OFBiz.

However, when I execute "java -jar ofbiz.jar -setup tomcat6", I get an error. I attached the console output here:

Start.java using configuration file org/ofbiz/base/start/setup.properties
Set OFBIZ_HOME to - /home/ubuntu/ofbiz-tomcat/ofbiz
