Follow the below exactly, that's what I did:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------
File placement and environment setup
Download the appropriate jakarta-tomcat [.zip | .gz | .Z] file.
Unzip the file into some directory (say /usr/local or C:\). This should
create a new subdirectory named "tomcat". [Does it still create
"jakarta-tomcat" instead? If so, just rename it "tomcat".]
Change directory to "tomcat" and set a new environment variable
(TOMCAT_HOME) to point to the root directory of your Tomcat hierarchy. The
exact directory may change from system to system; check your local
filesystem to be sure where Tomcat is installed.
On Win32 systems you should type:
set TOMCAT_HOME=c:\tomcat
On UNIX (using bash/sh) you should type:
TOMCAT_HOME=/usr/local/tomcat ; export TOMCAT_HOME
On UNIX (using tcsh) you should type:
setenv TOMCAT_HOME=/usr/local/tomcat
Set the environment variable JAVA_HOME to point to the root directory of
your JDK hierarchy, then add the Java interpreter to your PATH environment
variable. The exact directory may change from system to system; check your
local filesystem to be sure where Java is installed.
Win32:
set JAVA_HOME=c:/jdk1.2
set PATH=%PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\bin
Unix (bash/sh):
set JAVA_HOME=/user/local/java/jdk1.2; export JAVA_HOME
set PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin; export PATH
Unix (tcsh):
setenv JAVA_HOME=/user/local/java/jdk1.2
setenv PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
