tomcat6

I've just installed Tomcat 6.0.20 (per Jira documentation recommendation) on RedHat EL 5 Server, and attempts to use:

bin] # ./startup.sh

...result in:

Using CATALINA_BASE: /opt/software/jira-tomcat-6.0.20
Using CATALINA_HOME: /opt/software/jira-tomcat-6.0.20
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /opt/software/jira-tomcat-6.0.20/temp
Using JRE_HOME: /etc/alternatives/jre
Usage: catalina.sh ( commands ... )
commands:
  debug         Start Catalina in a debugger
  ...
  version       What version of tomcat are you running?

I've edited the catalina.sh file to add:

echo $0
echo $1

...and I see:

catalina.sh
start

...etc when I use:

./catalina.sh start

Why does catalina.sh not use the parameter?
