Still no change I'm afraid. I had already set the Initial memory to a higher level though not 4096. 4096 still no good.
I re-iterate that there was no problem running the batch files, only with using the start menu. I am using Tomcat 5.0 and did not have this problem with earlier version. I am running on win98 with a Pentium 200Mhz, 196 RAM. -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Mohrig [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2003 9:47 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: AW: Start Tomcat Simon, then this can be remedied. From http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/RUNNING.txt (5) Troubleshooting: [...] 2) An "out of environment space" error when running the batch files in Win9X/ME-based operating systems. Right-click on the STARTUP.BAT and SHUTDOWN.BAT files. Click on "Properties" then on the "Memory" tab. For the "Initial environment" field, enter in something like 4096. After you click apply, Windows will create shortcuts in the directory with which you can use to start and stop the container.

November 2003 10:38 An: 'Tomcat Users List' Betreff: RE: Start Tomcat OK. One thing i forgot about was that when I run startup.bat I get two dos windows open. The first line of the startup window is "syntax error". Having run catalina.bat I'm now getting more feedback. After syntax error I am getting "out of environment space". After 4 lines providing information on directories being used there are 3 more lines stating "out of environment space" . Then "bad command or file name".
