I tried changing the logon setup to use my ID and password but it did not make a difference.
How do I get to the "System Event Log" in Windows 7? Thank you Javier España Sr. Technical Analyst Honda North American Services, LLC.

In a nutshell : When you run Tomcat via STARTUP.BAT in a command window, Tomcat starts up : - under your own logged-in user-id - using the parameters present in the various BAT files present in Tomcat/bin When you run Tomcat as a Service, it starts up : - under whatever user-id the Service is configured to run under - using parameters in the Registry (it does not use the BAT files at all) (The Registry parameters can be edited via the GUI editor tomcat7w.exe, also in Tomcat/bin) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
