The issue is due to a bunch of JVM options that are no longer supported in
Java 15. After cleaning those up the server started normally.

Subject: Issue running Tomcat-8.5.72 with JDK15 under windows as a service
I am verifying a migration from JDK8 to JDK15 and wanted to setup a Tomcat
8.5 server environment for this test (similar to the Tomcat8.5 with JDK8
we have running for the moment).
I installed the instance as a service under my local (test) windows
environment and configured the JVM through the java tab. When starting
the service the tomcat deamon fails with:
CreateJavaVM Failed with error [-6], The system cannot find the
file specified.
References on the net seem to indicate that the problem is with the JVM
setting but the location ' C:\Program
Files\Java\jdk-15.0.1\bin\server\jvm.dll' is correct.
Below the daemon log which shows all JVM options and -D environment
variables set:
