I've run into this before, but didn't have time to hunt down the issue.
Now I do, so here goes.
I have installed both TC 6.0.24 and 5.5.28 on Windows server 2003 32-bit
(into separate directories, of course). In each case, I first ran the
windows installer .exe, and then unzipped the .zip package on top of it
so I would have the service.bat utilities. Each one started its default
service with no trouble.
I then created a service for my app with each version's service.bat
(different names), which starts from a separate folder on the HD. With
IDENTICAL settings, both pointing to the exact same catalina_base, the
5.5 one starts fine, and 6.0 fails to start, with the following error in
stderr_20100308.log:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200)

at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.init(Bootstrap.java:216)
at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:391)
Much searching of documentation and faqs has not turned up an
explanation of what I may be missing in the 6.0 installation, or what
the configuration differences are between the two versions.
Any suggestions?
