Hello,
Take a look at the following release notes for Tomcat available at:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat/src/doc/readme
It has a complete section which addresses the out of environment problem
which you are encountering. I have attached the section which I believe
addresses you issue.
Regards,

6.6 Avoiding "Out of environment space" errors on Windows 95/98
This error can easily occur since the default amount of environment space is
typically insufficient to run Tomcat. Here are a couple of ways to avoid
it.
A. If you use the MS-DOS Prompt to start Tomcat, execute Programs ->
MS-DOS Prompt. Right-click the MS-DOS icon on the left of the title
bar
and select Properties at the bottom of the menu. In the MS-DOS Prompt
Properties dialog select the Memory tab. In the "Initial environment:"
field, set a sufficiently high number. If you are not sure, 3072
should
be plenty. Click OK and close the MS-DOS Prompt window. Execute
Programs -> MS-DOS Prompt again, navigate to the directory where you
installed Tomcat. Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable if not set
already. You should be able to execute "bin\startup" and
"bin\shutdown"
to start and stop Tomcat without getting an "Out of environment space"
error.
B. If you want to start Tomcat by double clicking a batch file such as
startup.bat, you should right-click on the desired batch file in
Windows
Explorer and select Properties to open the MS-DOS Prompt Properties
dialog. Select the Memory tab and set the "Initial environment:" as
described above. You may want to also select the Program tab and check
"Close on exit". Then click OK. A shortcut with these settings will
be
created in same directory with the same base name as the batch file.
You
should be able to double-click the shortcut or the batch file to
execute
without getting an "Out of environment space" error. If you wish to
execute startup.bat and shutdown.bat in this fashion, you will need to
do
the above for both files. In addition, you need to provide for setting
JAVA_HOME. This may be done by adding a "SET JAVA_HOME=path to your
jdk"
line to your autoexec.bat or to the startup.bat and shutdown.bat files
themselves.
