Re: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

As far as I can tell, the zipped version is identical to the exe distro for each identical version, save the fact that the exe lets you start tomcat as a service, create shell extensions and create the admin user for the tomcat administration.

Jacob's suggestion is useful, try and run the start.bat from a command prompt, it's easier to see the errors. The last time I encountered the error was when there wasn't enough environment space to keep variables in the autoexec.bat

Steve,

I assume you are just double clicking on one of the Tomcat .bat files to run Tomcat. Instead, open up a command prompt, cd to the directory where the .bat files are and type the name of the .bat file you want to run. Now you will see the error output.

Kwok, the so-called "crash" is like it just flat disappearing on me!!! I
mean, it's like "puff", like "up in smoke" so to speak!! And, in response to
a smurray, I already am and have been using the zip file version of Tomcat!!
Is there some merit to what I suggested, namely that I delete and then turn
around and set all of the environment variables for Tomcat in the System
settings?!
