Well i have alternative of starting tomcat based on the OS. But i specifically want to use catalina.sh for both windows and unix operating systems. For the past 4 years i am able to use it, but not only with this version. What is the major change that was done with this version. why does catalina.sh does'nt get started with this version on windows.
