Your CATALINA_HOME is path to your tomcat in the cd then if and only if yours CD is a CDR and CD-rom is a cd-writer, otherwise how could tomcat be able to write the logs file??

I've got Tomcat 4.1.12 installed (on Windows XP Pro) in c:\tomcat, and CATALINA_HOME is set to that in the system environment variables. What I want to do is to make a copy of it on a CD as a known stable environment to demonstrate a university project, and have it so I can just stick the CD in and it starts tomcat and fires up a web browser to my project root (for example, http://localhost:8080/WebApp) The web browser bit isn't much of a problem, but if I make a copy of c:\tomcat in another folder with a startup script that fills in all the details for catalina_home, java_home (also in a subdir) and so on, the tomcat server starts up and then dies without creating a log (or at least, not in the new %catalina_home%\logs folder) Oliver --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
