Now you should be able to see the error message without the window disappearing on you. Also, make sure the JAVA_HOME points to the top level directory of your JDK ("C:\jdk1.3" instead of "C:\jdk1.3\bin" for instance). Also, I don't know if things have changed with the more recent versions, but I seem to remember there being problems with the installations in previous versions, and it was generally recommended to just download the binary release (sufficient unless you want to take a look at and/or tweak the source code), unzip, and set the environment variables. You could always give that a try to see if things work better. HTH, -Jeff "Nathan McMinn" 01/08/03 04:22 PM Please respond to "Tomcat Users List" To: "Tomcat Users List" cc: Subject: Re: Installation woes I added it, and it appears to be using the correct jdk. However, now the damn thing won't start. And it closes the terminal window before I can retreive the error message. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tam, Michael" To: "'Tomcat Users List'" Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2003 4:13 PM Subject: RE: Installation woes > Nathan, > > Adding JAVA_HOME as environment variable under Sys.
