You really need to take a look at your logs. They will show what's happening. A couple of typical things to look at though:
1. There's another service running on the ports this tomcat 5.5.12 install is trying to run on. By default, tomcat attempts to bind to 8005, 8080, and possibly 8009. TCPView from Sysinternals (http://www.sysinternals.com) can help you see what's listening and on what ports. 2. If your Java version is 1.4.x, you'll need to install the compat package to make tomcat compatible with java 1.4. It can be downloaded from the same place you got your tomcat from. Be warned however you shouldn't just blindly install the compat package. It can break your install if you are using tomcat with java 1.5.x (aka java 5). Both of these problems will show in the catalina.out file in the logs directory of your tomcat installation. --David Andreas Hess wrote: >I`m trying to install the tomcat 5.5.12 version on my computer, but I can not >run tomcat automatically by changing the service-properties from manual to >automatic.
