how to restart tomcat5.5 on w2k?

[cyan01]

Hi, Experts,

I just installed tomcat5.5 on my windows 2000 box. During installation/configuration, I was asked whether I would like to start tomcat now and I said yes. Then I noiced tomcat is running and I successfully ran a few sample jsp codes.

However, after I rebooted my machine, I can no longer start tomcat any more. Strange enough, there is no executable 'startup', nor 'shutdown' in %CATALINA_HOME%\bin. Could someone tell me why?

BTW, under my C:\Program Files\ApacheFoundation\Tomcat5.5\bin, there are ONLY following 4 files:

bootstrap
commons-logging-api
tomcat5
tomcat5w

Thanks in advance for you help!

Sounds like you have installed tomcat as a windows service - so go to the win services and start/stop appropriately.
