pro_java_server thread: Tomcat Installation on Windows 2000 Server


Message #1 by paulswilliams@o... on Sat, 21 Jul 2001 10:36:07
Hello all,

        I have been trying to install Tomcat (stand alone with the plan to 
intergrate with IIS later) on Windows 2000 Server without any joy.

I tried the following steps on windows 2000 pro client, with no problems, 
so why not on windows server?

I have extracted 3.2.2 zip file onto d:\jakarta-tomcat, and set the 
TOMCAT_HOME and ANT_HOME system and user(at diferent times!) environment 
variables to D:\jakarta-tomcat, and whenever I try to run startup.bat from 
command prompt, I receive a : 
The system can not find the batch label specified - startServer.

I still receive this message if I try using 'tomcat start' command, 
however if I try 'tomcat run', this works correctly, however tomcat starts 
in same window.

Although I have no problems with using tomcat run, rather than 
startup.bat, I am wondering whether this may cause grief later on.


Thank You for any advice.

Paul S Williams
