Hi, Just in case this could be of any help to someone. I am running DSpace 1.8.1 on Windows XP. Today I had a Java Update "proposal" to wich I said OK, so Java was very automatically updated on my computer.
Coincidentally, after that update, my Tomcat (5.5.35) would not start anymore. The Tomcat icon would show up normally, but every time I tried to "start the service", it would not. I was always getting the red "Stop" icon, instead of the green "play" button. Long story short, the following change in Tomcat's configuration solved the problem: In the Tomcat Configuration / Java Properties / Java Virtual Machine path I had this path: C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll which I changed to C:\program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_30\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll That is, I switched from the updated or created "...jre6" folder to the "...jdk1.6.0_30" folder created when installing Java for DSpace (the one defined in the environment variable JAVA_HOME). Now it works. I am not shure, but I suspect Java update changed my Tomcat configuration. Could this be the reason? I don't know what was the old config. Or maybe the update did not change Tomcat's config, but he does not "like" the new jvm.dll. By the way, I wonder if this change could have bad effects on something else (I hope not). Maybe old news to some of you, but I hope this could useful to somebody.
