Hi All,
I'm having problems installing Tomcat 6.0.29 as a service on a Windows 2008
server. Here are the relevant specs
Apache Tomcat v6.0.29 (64 bit)
JDK 6u22 (64 bit)
Windows Server Standard 2008 (sp2)
I've tried to start the Tomcat as a service unsuccessfully. I have run
Tomcat6 and service.bat from the command line. Here's my output from
service.bat
C:\c\tomcat\bin>service.bat install
Installing the service 'Tomcat6' ...
Using CATALINA_HOME: "C:\c\tomcat"
Using CATALINA_BASE: "C:\c\tomcat"
Using JAVA_HOME: "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_22"
Using JVM: "c:\Program
Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_22\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll"
Failed installing 'Tomcat6' service
C:\c\tomcat\bin>
Here is what I'm seeing in my Jakarta Service Log:

I have checked the environmental variables above and I believe that they are
correct. I have also copied msrvc71.dll to my oc\tomcat\bin directory
(where Tomcat6.exe is located) per some other suggestions I've found online.
I can see the service from Windows Services but I can't start it from there
Nor can I start it using netstart from the command line or using
service.bat. I'm new to Apache and Java. Any help would be appreciated.
Can you run Tomcat from a command window ?
Navigate to C:\c\tomcat\bin
run "startup.bat" (it should open another window where tomcat messages will
appear)
(terminate with ctrl-c in the new window)
You can also run the program "tomcat6w.exe" directly. It is a GUI program which allows to
edit the Registry settings of the Tomcat Service. Maybe you can spot there what is missing.
For info, "tomcat6.exe" is actually the Commons Daemon "procrun" mentioned above in the
log. It is just renamed. tomcat6.exe is a "wrapper program", which reads the Registry
settings of the Tomcat service and starts the JVM accordingly (or tries to).
It looks like it cannot start the java JVM for some reason.
Maybe also the Windows Event log will give a clue ?
