RE: Error dialog with the word environment misspelled as envionment
Hi Mark, Thanks for looking into this. Dismissing the original dialog results in a series of additional dialogs which seem to imply that something called exe4j is the source. According to their website's help document, exe4j creates Windows executables that invoke your Java applications and integrates them into the Windows environment. I had never heard of exe4j, and I'm not sure what application I have installed that uses it. My best guess now is that exe4j has the typo in their code base.

Error dialog with the word environment misspelled as envionment
Hi,
We are attempting to upgrade our product from using tomcat 6.0.29 to 6.0.32
(and also upgrade to the latest patch of Java 6). This process has been
rocky, and when I installed the latest version of our product on windows, the
tomcat service would not start, and I saw an error dialog (below) with text:
The {0} envionment variable does not point to a working 32-bit JDK or JRE
If windows does not auto-correct it, you will see that the word environment
is misspelled as envionment - missing the letter r.
[cid:image001.png@01CC4558.95A81140]
I'm sure the cause of the error is in our own product. I only mention it
because when I saw an anonymous error dialog with a misspelled word, my first
thought was that I had a computer virus or some other malware. If there is a
spelling error in a tomcat dialog, I'm sure somebody is fastidious enough to
want to fix it.
Can anybody verify whether this dialog was really generated by tomcat?
This probably isn't relevant, but I am running Windows 7 Professional on a
64-bit machine. We are, in fact, bundling a 32-bit JRE in our product. Tomcat
was installed via a zipfile, but probably configured incorrectly. Once again,
I am not asking for help determining the cause of the error dialog: I am merely
reporting the typographical error.
Thanks,
Eric

The information above is a bit confusing.
Are you running Tomcat as a Windows Service ?
How is Tomcat being started ?

You would think that would be sufficient, but if you do a detailed comparison of the files in a public JRE against those in a JDK's private JRE you'll see lots of differences, including the contents of various *.jar files. (For example, rt.jar from the JDK is 4 MB larger than the one in the JRE.) I don't know why the two sets of jars should be different, but they are, and it may be pertinent. Can you launch the server mode with java -server -version? (Note that the -server option here applies only to the launcher, it's not done that way when running as a service.) What happens when you set JAVA_OPTS=-server and start Tomcat with startup.bat? We simply point tomcat to the server jvm.dll. Verify it's done properly
RE: Can't start tomcat 5.5.26 service on windows
Hi, This looks solved. I noticed that when I use service.bat install it adds the following java options: -Dcatalina.base=C:\tomcat -Dcatalina.home=C:\tomcat -Djava.endorsed.dirs=C:\tomcat\common\endorsed -Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\tomcat\temp -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager -Djava.util.logging.config.file=C:\tomcat\conf\logging.properties When I add them to my command line install, the service can be started and stopped from the command line as well as from the windows services panel. (The service does needs to be started after it is installed - it doesn't start by itself, but that's perfectly fine.) I futher found that I could specify -Dserver in the JvmOptions and use --Jvm=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_12\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll and it still installs, starts, and stops as I hoped and prayed it would.

We install the JRE, and then we copy the server jvm.dll (taken from an SDK install) to C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_12\bin\server\jvm.dll Rare. We do not delete the client jvm DLL, nor do we change the registry settings for Java. We simply point tomcat to the server jvm.dll. Why? Not an attempt to use the server jvm, surely? (Traditionally done using a switch, e.g. java -server etc) The jvm may be related to my problems. Maybe... When I use the standard tomcat install service.bat install the client VM is the default, and the tomcat service behaves nicely. When I proceed from that point (with a working service), and use tomcat5w.exe to change the JVM path to point to the server VM DLL, behavior is inconsistent. Surprise! Sometimes I can start and stop the tomcat service, and sometimes I can't. A logger says what? When I change it back to client (by checking the Use default check box), it starts working again. However, installing using tomcat5.exe but without setting the Jvm parameter has not helped: I still cannot start the service after installing like this: C:\C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\bin\tomcat5.exe //IS//Tomcat5 --DisplayName=Apache Tomcat 5.5 --Install=C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\bin\tomcat5.exe --Startup=auto --StartMode=jvm --StopMode=jvm --StartClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.BootStrap --StartParams=start --StopClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.BootStrap --StopParams=stop Using --Jvm=auto doesn't help either. So, client vm or not, I still cannot install from the command line using tomcat5.exe. Can I have a quick refresher, are you trying to install the windows service, or start the windows service? I assume the end result is that you want to run the server VM or make some other customisations to the environment? p From: Caldarale, Charles R [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Look at what the service.bat script generates I found something interesting in service.bat rem Set the server jvm from JAVA_HOME set PR_JVM=%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll if exist %PR_JVM% goto foundJvm rem Set
Can't start tomcat 5.5.26 service on windows
Hi, I'm installing tomcat in kind of a strange way (I'll explain why in a postscript), and I'm having trouble getting the service to start and stop consistently. I'd appreciate any advice on how to get this working, or a better procedure that meets the constraints under which I must work. Here is how I'm doing it. 1) Reboot. 2) Install tomcat to the default location. It shows up in the services panel as a manual service, not running. C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.26.exe /S At this point, I can start the service using the windows services panel. However, when I try to stop it the same way, I get this dialog: Could not stop the Apache tomcat Service on Local Computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. There is no event in the Windows Event Viewer (under System or anywhere else) matching this error. The end of jakarta_service_20080310.log looks like this: [2008-03-10 15:06:07] [info] Starting service... [2008-03-10 15:06:09] [info] Service started in 1298 ms. [2008-03-10 15:06:12] [info] Stopping service...

Why am I doing this strange procedure? -- We can't count on unzip utilities being available on the customers' servers since we have to support very old versionsof windows (e.g. Windows 2000), so I need to use the Windows installer. My management is against installing our own unzip utility, and they also require silent installation. I plan to wrap all these calls in a C++ executable and call it from our installer. That way, when customers install our product, Tomcat is installed and configured along with it. We cannot ask our customers to configure tomcat themselves. I devised this procedure from following this list and from http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/windows-service-howto.html We have done something roughly similar for Tomcat 4.1.x in the past, but we are upgrading to tomcat 5.5.26 now, and the installer command line options that used to work no longer do.

RE: Can't start tomcat 5.5.26 service on windows
Hi, I tried something simpler: a plain unzip install. It still doesn't work, and my web searches haven't been fruitful. This is so simple, I have either missed something quite obvious, or I have really screwed up my dev environment. I've been working on this for quite a long time. Any help would be appreciated. 1) I uninstalled tomcat, cleaned my registry, and rebooted. 2) I extracted tomcat (from .tar.gz) into C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5 3) I copied msvcr71.dll to C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\bin It's also in my c:\windows\system32 directory, which is in my path environment variable. 4) I executed this from a DOS prompt: C:\C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\bin\tomcat5.exe //IS//Tomcat5 --Jvm=auto --Startup auto --StartMode=jvm --StopMode=jvm --StartClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.BootStrap --StartParams=start --StopClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.BootStrap --StopParams=stop Same problem. The service shows up in the Windows Services panel as Tomcat5, and it is Automatic, but it is not started. The status field is blank. I can't start the tomcat service from the windows services panel. When I try, I get this error dialog: Windows could not start the Tomcat5 on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log.

I can't start the service this way, either: C:\Program Files\SonicWallESnet start Tomcat5 The Tomcat5 service is starting. The Tomcat5 service could not be started. A service specific error occurred: 0. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3547. C:\Program Files\SonicWallESNET HELPMSG 3547 A service specific error occurred: ***.

The logs directory is completely empty, probably because I didn't set those parameters this time. C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\logs One note: I _thought_ I had this working, but I'm not sure. I just upgraded to Visual Studio 2008 (which has new DLLs for msvcr, etc.), and I'm wondering if that could be related.

Hi, Thank you for the debugging tip. Running service.bat worked: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\binservice.bat install Installing the service 'Tomcat5' ... Using CATALINA_HOME:C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5 Using CATALINA_BASE:C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5 Using JAVA_HOME:C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_12 Using JVM: auto The service 'Tomcat5' has been installed. I can start and stop the service from the windows control panel and I can hit the default tomcat page on http://localhost:8080/ Does this suggest a cause to my earlier problems? (I'll try the GUI next.)

(I realize that doesn't fit your delivery requirements, but I suggest this just to see if you can get the service working at all.) You should probably go through a deinstall and reinstall of the .zip just to clean things up, then run the service.bat script to set up the service. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

RE: Can't start tomcat 5.5.26 service on windows
Hi, The GUI has proved useful for debugging, but didn't solve the problem. It appears to read/write the registry, so settings made from the command line are picked up in the GUI tool, and vice versa. Our Java setup is slightly non-standard. I'm not sure how non-standard: perhaps somebody can tell me if this situation is rare. We install the JRE, and then we copy the server jvm.dll (taken from an SDK install) to C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_12\bin\server\jvm.dll We do not delete the client jvm DLL, nor do we change the registry settings for Java. We simply point tomcat to the server jvm.dll. The jvm may be related to my problems. When I use the standard tomcat install service.bat install the client VM is the default, and the tomcat service behaves nicely. When I proceed from that point (with a working service), and use tomcat5w.exe to change the JVM path to point to the server VM DLL, behavior is inconsistent. Sometimes I can start and stop the tomcat service, and sometimes I can't. When I change it back to client (by checking the Use default check box), it starts working again. However, installing using tomcat5.exe but without setting the Jvm parameter has not helped: I still cannot start the service after installing like this: C:\C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\bin\tomcat5.exe //IS//Tomcat5 --DisplayName=Apache Tomcat 5.5 --Install=C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\bin\tomcat5.exe --Startup=auto --StartMode=jvm --StopMode=jvm --StartClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.BootStrap --StartParams=start --StopClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.BootStrap --StopParams=stop Using --Jvm=auto doesn't help either. So, client vm or not, I still cannot install from the command line using tomcat5.exe. From: Caldarale, Charles R [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Look at what the service.bat script generates I found something interesting in service.bat rem Set the server jvm from JAVA_HOME set PR_JVM=%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll if exist %PR_JVM% goto foundJvm rem Set the client jvm from JAVA_HOME set PR_JVM=%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll if exist %PR_JVM% goto foundJvm rem Check for JRockit JVM: Bugzilla 39674 set PR_JVM=%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\jrockit\jvm.dll if exist %PR_JVM% goto foundJvm set PR_JVM=auto My JAVA_HOME is C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_12 and my jvm DLL files are in C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_12\bin\server C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_12\bin\client In other words, service.bat is looking in %JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll for a DLL that is actually located one level up in %JAVA_HOME%\bin\server\jvm.dll which is why service.bat echoes Using JVM: auto and is probably why this method of installing the service works when nothing else does. Note: tomcat5w shows the correct path to the client jvm.dll when I install this way. When I change the installation to use the server vm, things stop working again.
