Hi, I am attempting to install and run Tomcat 4.1 on my Windows XP system. I have
followed the instructions as far as:
1. Downloading and installing J2SDK 1.4.1_01
2. Setting the CATALINA_HOME variable to c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1
3. Setting the JAVA_HOME variable to c:\j2sdk1.4.1_01
4. Including %JAVA_HOME%\bin in the PATH variable.
5. Restarting the computer.
Problem: When I click on the Start Tomcat icon, a window appears, a listing appears
briefly in the window and then the window quickly disappears.
At the command prompt, I get the following listing for the startup command and the
shutdown commands:
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\bin>startup
Using CATALINA_BASE: c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1
Using CATALINA_HOME: c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\temp
Using JAVA_HOME: c:\j2sdk1.4.1_01
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\bin>shutdown
Using CATALINA_BASE: c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1
Using CATALINA_HOME: c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\temp
Using JAVA_HOME: c:\j2sdk1.4.1_01

I'm not sure what's really supposed to happen at this point, but something doesn't
seem right. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
