Hi,

would appreciate help pls.

I just downloaded Tomcat from


for WINNT..

I am going in my root folder which is:
C:\hunky_sh\jakarta-tomcat-4.0
and then in bin directory
and i am running startup in my command prompt..

it opens a new console window..

and suddenly some message comes and then it closes this new console window..it happens so fast that
I am not able to see really anything..

but seems some error is coming up..

so I have 2 questions:
1). How to really hold the screen to see the error?
2). What can I might have done wrong due to which I have this weird behavior.. is it that something
might be interrupting my tomcat startup?

thanks alot
 
Try bringing up a command window (start/programs/command prompt or something like that) and run the startup script from there. C:\DOS:>
C:\DOS:>RUN
RUN DOS RUN!!
 
Oh sorry! I didn't read your message properly! You were already doing that!!

OK, the startup script checks some environment variables, then runs catalina. Try just running catalina and see what you get. C:\DOS:>
C:\DOS:>RUN
RUN DOS RUN!!
 
I tried it as:

C:\hunky_sh\jakarta-tomcat-4.0\bin>catalina

just got this as below...


Using CATALINA_BASE: ..
Using CATALINA_HOME: ..
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: ..\temp
Using JAVA_HOME: C:\JDK1.2.2
Usage: catalina ( commands ... )
commands:
debug Start Catalina in a debugger
debug -security Debug Catalina with a security manager
embedded Start Catalina in embedded mode
jpda start Start Catalina under JPDA debugger
run Start Catalina in the current window
run -security Start in the current window with security manager
start Start Catalina in a separate window
start -security Start in a separate window with security manager
stop Stop Catalina


Nothing more than this..
