When running as a service, tomcat runs under the local system user by default. This user has no privileges to access network resources either through UNC paths or mapped drives. Running from the command line, Tomcat runs as the user currently logged on and therefore has access to the whatever that user has access to including mapped drives. Note that if you change the service to run as a domain user, it still won't have access to mapped drives but it will have access to network resources via UNC paths.
