When I install Tomcat as a service, it will not start and there is no feedback as to why. It starts and stops fine from the command line. I have attached my wrapper.properties and a batch file I created to run the install command line. I have everything installed on E: and I am using JDK 1.3. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks, Geoff Moriak E:\jakarta-tomcat\service>net start Tomcat The Tomcat service is starting. The Tomcat service could not be started. The service did not report an error. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534. E:\jakarta-tomcat\service>net helpmsg 3534 The service did not report an error. EXPLANATION The service did not report an error. ACTION Try the task later. If the problem persists, contact your network administrator. _______________________________________________________ Say Bye to Slow Internet! http://www.home.com/xinbox/signup.html
