First check to see if the service is set to start Automatically (Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Services) Locate it in the list and in the column "Startup Type" if it doesn't say Automatic, double click on it and in the properties dialog change the start up type to Automatic in the drop down list.
But anyway, why don't you install it using the .exe and tick "nt service" makes thing s a lot easier. Hope this helps, if it doesn't then there is something else wrong.

Hi, I've installed Tomcat 4.1.12 on W2k and it runs perfectly when using the startmenu item "start tomcat" but when using the service it doesn't start at all. I've set my system variables and have run the command below and it said "service installed succesfully" but still (even after a reboot) the service won't start. As seen in the list lotsa people are encouraging the same problem but no concrete answer has been given yet that would solve everybodies problem. If I've found a good solution I can make a small doc around it that should be useful for everybody. So any help is welcome pls!
