Run the Configure Tomcat program (tomcat5w.exe). Click on the Java
tab. It'll show you what JVM it's using. If it's wrong, turn off "Use
default" and select the correct JVM.

Under Windows XP Home, jre1.5.0, tomcat5.5, Oracle9i, JBuilder9 with jdk 1.4,
StarTeam:

My problem is with tomcat5.5 installed as a Windows service.  It doesn't start.
It logs the message: "This release of Apache Tomcat was packaged to run on J2SE
5.0 or later...".

I interpret that to mean it has not located the jre1.5.0 home.

However, it starts successfully with the startup.bat.

My JRE_HOME environment variable is set to c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0, and
tomcat5.5 starts successfully using startup.bat.  I found by testing and
looking in the batch files that setting JAVA_HOME to the jre home did not work -
 it expects a jdk at the JAVA_HOME location apparently.

The tomcat service was installed using "service.bat -install".

I tried to get the service to start by doing the following:

1. Set JAVA_HOME to point to the jre1.5.0 home.
2. Modifying the service.bat file to explicitly specify --JAVA_HOME parameter
to the jre1.5.0 home.
3. Using "tomcat5 //US// --JAVA_HOME ..." to set the jre1.5.0 home.
4. Searching the registry for JAVA_HOME references that might conflict.
Because I have JBuilder9 installed, there are the following registry keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | JavaSoft | Java Development Kit | 1.4 |
JavaHome = "C:\Programs\Jbuilder9\jdk1.4"

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE|SOFTWARE|JavaSoft|Java Development Kit|1.4.1|JavaHome
= "C:\Programs\Jbuilder9\jdk1.4"

5. Editing the service properties and setting --JAVA_HOME in the startup
parameters, but just guessing at the syntax.

I have run out of ideas.

Does anyone know what might be the problem with running Tomcat5.5 as a service
with jre1.5.0?
