Hi,

The way to mount drives like units it's simple. Only works for 2000/XP,
(sorry if isn't exact, but mi windows is in spanish):
- Go to control panel, administratives tools.
- Disk Management
- Right click in a drive, "change letter and path to the drive"
- Select NTFS drive (you must have NTFS file system).

That's all!

Miguel

I which way do you have mounted the drive D:
I know of two ways:

1. subst command.
 I'm not sure if this still works under 2000/XP etc.
2. Via network share.
 Services DON'T have access to network resources, since:
 a) They run a system account and this one does not have the required
privileges. So you would have to assign a real user account ot the
tomcat service.
 b) The drive-map isn't existent in the service when you are not logged
in, and if you are logged in, a) might be the problem.

Andr�

So, you must be in the correct way: the drive of installation could
give
problems.

Can anybody with tomcat 4.1.10 installed like a service of windows,
tell us
with drive uses and if it works well?

Thanks!!

I have verified that user.dir works for me when using a directory name
with
spaces in it,
specifically when I installed it to
d:\jakarta tomcat\Tomcat 4.1

I had a similar situation.
I'm pretty sure it works 'out of the box'
if you install it onto the system drive (i.e. the one with
\WINNT\system32
on it)
but not if you put it onto any other drive ??

Is this the same for you?

BTW I am using jdk1.3.1 and the non-LE version, but I think that's
probably
irrelevant
