Very newbie question, Bootstrap: Class loader creation threw exception

[Matt]

I recently downloaded tomcat to try it out, and learn new parts of
server programs.(Kind of an odd thing)

I installed the JDK and put the PATH to it as the first entry in my path
statement

I went and ran startup.bat and it spawns a new window, and goes away
quickly, so I stepped through startup.bat, and saw it ran Catalina.bat

I then ran Catalina.bat run, and it spewed out an exception.

C:\WebServer\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18\bin>catalina.bat run
Using CATALINA_BASE:   ..
Using CATALINA_HOME:   ..
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: ..\temp
Using JAVA_HOME:       c:\jdk1.2.1
Bootstrap: Class loader creation threw exception

iled Code)
        at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Compiled Code)

I am running Windows XP SP1.  (I know, I should be using linux).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
