Re: Tomcat4, where is classpath set when run as service

[John Turner]

I'm pretty sure.  Editing the registry is possible, so is editing the 
startup scripts.  That doesn't mean its advisable, or portable.

Tomcat has a pretty robust ClassLoader architecture specifically 
designed to load classes that it needs.  Why not use it instead of 
mucking about with the registry and trying to force a new/different 
classpath?

Are you sure about that, John?  What about the following registry key?
Aren't the environment variables only used during the service setup process?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES
  SYSTEM
    CurrentControlSet
      Services
        Apache Tomcat 4.1
          Parameters  --  JVM Option Number 0:
REG_SZ: -Djava.class.path=C:\usr\local\Apache\Tomcat
4.1.24\bin\bootstrap.jar
It seems like the easiest way to add to the classpath, if that is really
want you want to do Paul, is to edit the registry.
