Hi Folks, I recently installed tomcat version 6 on my Windows XP laptop in order to test some Java servlets. Windows XP is fully up to date with all service updates and security updates. I believe that I followed all the installation instructions correctly and Tomcat reports that it is running using port 8080 very soon after I start it. I tried to fire up the examples supplied with Tomcat by using the address in IE "http://localhost:8080, as described in the Tomcat instructions. This resulted in an Error 404 which stated that the server was running but the webpages could not be accessed. I also tried to run my test servlet with the same result. I tried stopping Tomcat to check whether there was another webserver running. When I tried to run my test servlet without Tomcat running, it failed with an error saying that there was no service. From this I assume that there was not another webserver running. I discovered that I had multiple Java directories in C:\Program Files and have decided to start completely from scratch by uninstalling all Java versions and Tomcat. I have successfully uninstalled all Java instances and checked that their directories have been removed from C:\Program Files. However, I cannot find any standad method of uninstalling Tomcat, which is installed at c:\tomcat It does not appear in the list of installed programs in the Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs list. Nor can I find any program called uninstall in the tomcat directories. Nor can I find any reference to uninstall in any of the tomcat documentation. I have tried searching the Tomcat wiki for uninstall information but got zero responses.
Can I just delete the tomcat directory? or will this leave orphan Windows registry elements hanging around? I would not want to edit the Windows registry directly myself at my currently level of knowledge and experience. Or is their an uninstall process / program that I can use? I hope that someone can help me.
