Chris, I did not remove the previous service, but in the Tomcat properties manager, Java tab, all the paths were correct.
However, after reviewing your email, I deleted the tomcat9 service and then reinstalled it. That did the trick! I was able to start the service. Thank you so much! (Just a note: I did remove -Djava.endorsed.dirs before starting tomcat) -cuzi > On 02/01/2024 5:32 PM EST Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net> > wrote: > > > Lori, > > On 2/1/24 10:35, Lori Kilen wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I have a Windows server (v2019) and I've updated java to Corretto > > jdk11.0.22_7 and Tomcat to 9.0.85.
