Let's take a step back...Tomcat 5 is not ready for regular use, and you seem to be a newbie to Tomcat. I would highly recommend and strongly suggest that you try using Tomcat 4.1.24 instead.

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
Stan

Dear Tomcat People

1) I set the JAVA_HOME environment variable under Preferences in "My Computer"
2)Created a "Tomcat" directory
3) downloaded the Tomcat 5 to the newly created Tomcat directory
4) extracted the startup files under the bin folder
5) tried to verify the service is running by typing in HREF="http://localhost:8080/";>http://localhost:8080


I received an error message that said " web site not responding"

Thank you for your assistance
Stan
