Hi Saeed I think this better that you don't put CATALINA_HOME in your environment variables, because TOMCAT recognizes that automatically (because this same as Tomcat installation dir), plus you can put the JAVA_HOME directly in setclasspath.bat (in bin dir). In installaton time you must indicate your JAVA_HOME.After that you must don't change your JAVA_HOME or create an environment variable for that. By

I start learning JSP and ohter J2EE tools recently. I buy a book of "Professional JSP 2nd Edition". Sir i am facing a problem: I dowload jakarta_tomcat 4.1.30.exe from the website. I already do have jdk1.3 at my PC ( iam using win98 OS). Now after installing jakarta_tomcat to a folder "c\apache\tomcat", I create two environment variables into my Autoexe.bat file as under : set JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.3 set CATALINA_HOME=C:\APACHE\TOMCAT Now when I Start Tomcat - a DOS base window is opened and remained active for few seconds and then close automatically. Also i try Startup.bat file at MS DOS promt, it shows some lines as follows: C:\Apache\Tomcat\bin>startup Using CATALINA_BASE: C:\APACHE\TOMCAT Using CATALINA_HOME: C:\APACHE\TOMCAT Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: C:\APACHE\TOMCAT\temp Using JAVA_HOME: C:\jdk1.3 C:\Apache\Tomcat\bin> And in the mid also a new DOS base window shows a name 'Java' opened for few seconds and automatically closed. Sir/Madam, whats the wrong with the tomcat? coz as per book instructions it must shows a Catalina named window and remained active till I did not issue a command Shutdown. So please guide me what I should do in this connection in detail. An early reply shall highly bhe appreicated.
