Go to http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_tomcat-4.cgi and download the 4.1.31 zip binary.
I would recommend putting all Java related files in c:\Java\. In here you would have your Java sdk, tomcat etc. So just extract the tomcat zip into this directory and then add an evironment variable 'CATALINA_HOME' and then add %CATALINA_HOME%\bin to your path. From here you can then run c:\Java\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.31\bin\startup.bat That should get you started! Any other troubles just keep posting ;) Andrew. --- In [email protected], "JesterXL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Bleh, ok, Tomcat won't start, not sure it's deal.
