I did a quick gut-check of the service.bat logic, and it appears the batch file is primarily there to build JAVA_HOMEs, CATALINA_HOMEs, and select a jvm.dll for an eventual call to tomcat5.exe... but the real meat of the service registration seems to happen in tomcat5.exe. Or not, as the case may be :-)

I don't but service.bat is a windows batch file (obviously) in plain text that is easy to read through so try editing the file, rem'ng the first line that is turning off all the useful echo'd information, then run it again and then send the output to the list.
