It's because when Tomcat start, it looks for the java executables, and if it can find it in the path, then build the JAVA_HOME from this location instead of using yours... So if your PATH points to the JDK/bin directory, your JAVA_HOME won't be used. So you can even suppress it. Anyway, RTFM (tomcat_ug.html): 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. Benoit
