In answer to my own question, javaservice.exe/tomcat.exe seems to work with the new beta and JDK 1.4 - I wonder why the 4.03 version didn't...
Also, setting the dependencies works as expected now as well...

Rather than edit the registry I used Service+ from http://www.activeplus.com/. This proved unsuccessful. Does anyone have experience of sucess with JavaService in Tomcat 4.0.4 beta 1 - I think the problem may be that the old jk_nt_service wrapper reports completion before Tomcat is fully loaded...?

You will have to go into the Win Registry and find the key HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Services. Then locate the Apache service entry.....and change it so that it has a dependency on the Tomcat service. To figure out how to format a dependency entry, just mimic another service that has a dependency. Basically you add a key DependOnService (check out the RasMan service if you have RAS installed). I believe this will take care of the order in which the services are started for you at boot time. Caveat: Edit the Windows Registry at your OWN RISK. I will not be responsible for any damage you might do to your windows system by mucking about incorrectly.
