RE: Error - Unable to open the service 'Tomcat6' on Windows 2003
I just had to remove one on one of my servers (I create one per instance and just deleted an instance). The registry path is HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. The default key name is ApacheTomcatMonitor.

Hi I am sure it is Tomcat6 Can you please explain the registry setting as I could not find auto-run for Apache Software foundation.

Here is what's probably happening: Windows is trying to launch the Tomcat6w.exe (aka the Tomcat Monitor system tray object) because it's in the Run section of the registry. Since this tool allows changes to the registry, Windows probably requires Admin rights to run it. I had fits with this on Windows 2008 Server even for someone with admin rights until I lessened the stupid security a bit. You might have to edit your registry and remove the auto-run of Tomcat6w.exe. You can still run it manually if you need it as an admin from the menu. Someone please correct if this is incorrect. -Original Message- From: bhavik shah [mailto:bhavik...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2009 1:53 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Error - Unable to open the service 'Tomcat6' on Windows 2003 Hi, I have installed the Tomcat 6.0.20 on windows 2003 server.

Might also be something in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs (I think that's the right path for Win2K3, but I don't have one handy). - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

Are you sure it says Tomcat6 and not Tomcat6w? Here is what's probably happening: Windows is trying to launch the Tomcat6w.exe (aka the Tomcat Monitor system tray object) because it's in the Run section of the registry. Since this tool allows changes to the registry, Windows probably requires Admin rights to run it. I had fits with this on Windows 2008 Server even for someone with admin rights until I lessened the stupid security a bit.

The message should say Tomcat6 - that's the name of the service that the unprivileged tomcat6w.exe program is trying to access. Someone please correct if this is incorrect. Other than the initial question, it all looks quite reasonable. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
