Hi Jason, Thank you very much for replying. It worked. I modified setclasspath.bat to NOT check for the presence of jdb and javac. I was then able to start Tomcat by using 'catalina run' and 'catalina start'. Now I have a few more questions:
1) What is the role of the tools.jar file? Does it help in compilation of JSP's? I mean, is tools.jar enough to compile JSP's without a JDK? 2) On Windows, I have registered tomcat to run a system service. If we modify setclasspath.bat, how do we make the service startup not depend on the JDK. How to specify just the JRE? Can we modify the service parameters (using tomcat5w) to point to the JRE's jvm.dll? Is that just enough? Eagerly awaiting your replies...
