Hi list

I have been trying to get this to work by looking a lot on similar =
situations around the net but nothing works. My setup is as follows:

* Tomcat 7.0.37 installed via the Windows service installer package
* Windows 2003 server
* Java/JRE 1.7.0_15
* Using C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\server\jvm.dll

So the problem is that the Tomcat7 service won't start from the service =
control panel. I just get a "Could not start =85" and "Error 1053: The =
service did not respond =85".

There's nothing in the Tomcat logs (both stdout and stderr are empty). =
The event logs shows a generic service control manager error.

But - If I start the service from the command line by typing "tomcat7 =
//TS/Tomcat7" the thing works fine.

Also if I change the service user account to the "Administrator" account =
I get a different error by startup "Error 1068: The dependency service =
or group failed to start".

Any ideas?
