my laptop is windows 10 , 64 bit
I am running tomcat 9.0.14. it has been running fine since I installed it,
until today. Today for the first time in a long while I could not start
tomcat.
I found the following logfile

I did a recursive search under the tomcat directory looking at text files
for "jrel1" and did not find anything.
So far google searches have not turned up anything.
Any ideas as to why I am having this issue ?
