Sean, check the logs directory under your tomcat install directory. You should see errors in one of the logs there. I also find it helps for development to nut run tomcat as a service and start/stop it from the commandline scripts in the bin directory. You can see errors immediately on the console there.
Lastly, you can use log4j to add logging to your app and get more useful info specific to your own code. hth, charles On Apr 2, 2010, at 4:05 AM, Sean Sullivan wrote: > Is there some way I can see some logs of what happened when I tried to get > the service started?
