Why are you building Tomcat from the source? (OK, I understand there are
a multitude of reasons why someone might want to do this....) But if
your intention is simply to run a Tomcat application, then why not
download & install the binaries? - installable Windows binaries seem to
be available for 5.0.28; 5.0.30-beta; 5.5.12; and 4.1.31.

Subject: How to Build Tomcat 4.1.x or 5.0.x on Windows?
I downloaded the source zip for both Tomcat 4.1.3 and 5.0.30 and have
been
struggling for three days now to get a build to work. I'm using the
Sun
J2SE 1.5 JDK and Ant 1.6.5. I followed the build instructions on the
Tomcat
web site and downloaded all of the required files, and have been
slowly
making progress by locating and downloading whatever file it says it
cannot
find, but I feel like I'm trying to put out a forest fire by stomping
on it.
I'm just trying to get a "vanilla" release of Tomcat to build on my
Windows
XP system here.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
