OK, OK.  I know 5.x is SUPPOSED to have this easy to use service installer, but it's 
not working for me.  The installation program doesn't even try to create the service 
(at least I can't find any evidence of it), so I'm trying to create my own using the 
tomcat.exe program, but when I go to start it I get this evil "The Apache Tomcat 
(Live) service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services...".  No log 
files of any type are created.  If I run startup.bat from a command line, it starts up 
and runs fine, but I need the service.

I'm using:

tomcat //IS//ApacheTomcatLive 
--DisplayName "Apache Tomcat (Live)" 
--Description "Apache Tomcat 5.0.16 - Live Instance" 
--ImagePath "c:\www\live\tomcat\5.0.16\bin\bootstrap.jar" 
--StartupClass org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap;main;start 
--ShutdownClass org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap;main;stop 
--Java auto

There's no linefeeds obviously, and I've even tried adding tools.jar to the ImagePath 
argument as well.

Does anybody see what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Mike
