>After 4th step, you need to start Tomcat Server. (or) you can also start
from bin directory .. use startup.bat
Dear Sir,
I went to windows explorer and saw the directory structure
C:
Tomcat
jakarta-tomcat-5
dist
bin
In the bin directory I clicked on run the startup file and the error message
said:
"The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly"
However I did set the JAVA_HOME environment variable under Preferences in "My
Computer" to j2sdk1.4.0_03
and verified it at the command prompt with an C:\>echo %JAVA_HOME%
Thank you for your assitance
