Right. Then, in short : run tomcat7w.exe, which should be there. That's a GUI which allows to edit parameters stored in the Registry, for the Tomcat JVM wrapper which is tomcat7.exe. In one of the tabs, there should be the path of the JVM to run, and that's probably what is wrong. Rectify it and retry tomcat7.exe.

Re: Tomcat 7 Startup Problems
Long explanation: 1) the Windows installer, for some unfathomable reason, does not contain all the files. The 64-bit zip file does. 2) a standard java JVM does not have the plumbing to run well as a Windows Service (for example, it does not react to Windows Service Events). That's why some smart people created a service wrapper which does have such plumbing, and this wrapper in turn will run the JVM which runs tomcat. This wrapper is what you get as tomcat7.exe. 3) this wrapper takes its parameters from the Windows registry (for example, which JVM to run). Another Windows program, distributed as tomcat7w.exe, is the GUI editor which allows to view/modify these parameters. Normally, all this should be set up properly by the tomcat exe installer. But it looks like in your case, something did not happen correctly. Under Windows 7, it may be because you did not get rid of UAC, or did not run the installer as an administrator, or who knows what else.

Re: Tomcat 7 Startup Problems
2011/4/11 Joseph Morgan joseph.mor...@ignitesales.com: Yep.. the entirety of the Java parameters was blank I understand that as the service was not actually installed, i.e. nothing was written into the registry. You would better to uninstall it and then reinstall (and now be sure to run the installer with run as administrator). Though if you want to install it manually, there is service.bat in the zip package. BTW, the exe installer prints the commands that were used to install the service into one of log files. Those can also be used to reinstall it. apache-tomcat-7.0.8.exe Why not 7.0.12? :/ We copied the msvcr71.dll into the bin directory, The above should not be needed.

The location of these logs, as I recall, is also in a tab in tomcat7w.exe. As a quick-and-dirty fix, you could download the zip, expand it into your tomcat directories (should be ok, will just add new files), and then run the service.bat script from the command-line to install your service properly. (You may have to de-install the service first, I don't remember). To do it cleanly, it may be better to de-install tomcat, and re-install it, making sure that you do not have permission problems.

RE: Tomcat 7 Startup Problems
You would better to uninstall it and then reinstall (and now be sure to run the installer with run as administrator). After Andre's suggestion that we may not have properly installed as administrator, this is exactly what we just did... and I did notice the new version and downloaded 7.0.12.. and evidently we did not Run as Administrator when we installed things are working just fine now -Original Message- From: Konstantin Kolinko [mailto:knst.koli...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, April 11, 2011 9:59 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat 7 Startup Problems 2011/4/11 Joseph Morgan joseph.mor...@ignitesales.com: Yep.. the entirety of the Java parameters was blank I understand that as the service was not actually installed, i.e. nothing was written into the registry.
