The Windows start command initiates a service; the .bat scripts run Tomcat =
as a regular process.  As you've discovered, your heap settings were very d=
ifferent for the two environments.

32- or 64-bit?

As you determined, the above MaxPermSize is outrageous.  Also, the -Xmx set=
ting doesn't match what you have set for the service execution.

Please post the above file to the list.

> (One question about that,are these the same JAVA_OPTS??)

JAVA_OPTS is used when running Tomcat via the scripts, the tomcat5w.exe set=
tings when running as a service.  They do not have to match, but it's usual=
ly better to keep them in sync to eliminate confusion when switching betwee=
n the two execution mechanisms.

> And I don't have CATALINA_OPTS

CATALINA_OPTS applies only to Tomcat itself when run from the scripts, wher=
eas JAVA_OPTS applies to both Tomcat and the shutdown program; the latter c=
an run quite happily with the default heap and other settings.
