Hi, All your problems stem from the lack of environment space. If you run this on '95/98 you'd get the same error.
While running tomcat, do you really need to have such a long path (as specified)? You could write a small batch file to keep the path to the bare minimum - this way you'd have more space for initialization of tomcat. this is a temporary solution - since most of the jar files you'd come across force you to include them in the classpath.
