Why won't tomcat run with jre

[Alex Colic]

Hi,

I tried running tomcat with the jre and it failed. It will work aqainst a
full install of the jdk. If this is the case then why?

Does this mean that every machine I install tomcat on needs the full jdk? If
I write a web app and I want to demo it for a customer my setup must include
the jdk and not the jre but according to the license I am not allowed to
include the jdk with my apps.

As anyone figure out how to create a setup for Tomcat.
