In my experience on teaching 400+ programmers on Java, I have found many programmers
are struggling to understand the concept of
CLASSPATH. No offence meant. They try to put PATH values into CLASSPATH variable or
the other way and expect the JRE or the
compiler to find the right class files. Sometimes they introduce extra characters,
such as space, in the CLASSPATH variable.
I have never tried tomcat before. However, there are some obvious problems with the
CLASSPATH here. Go to your jdk directory and
find that that tools.jar file would be available as c:\jdk1.3\jre\lib\tools.jar;
Similary the command for starting JRE should have
been from c:\jdk1.3\bin\java
