In response to you questions:
javac is at C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_14\bin
I removed C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_14\bin; from the PATH in windows: no
difference when starting service
I have no JAVA_HOME in environment vars... Should it be there or somewhere else?
revert the changes:
Thanks Chuck, Serge
I installed jdk 5, jre 5, jdk 6 and jre 6 and apache tomcat again
Then I added the 1.6 jdk to the PATH of windows
I modified in tomcat6w the path to C:\Program
Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_14\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll (don't know why jre is there..
but it works).
Now CMD: 'java'
