Hi Darren, Good to hear that you solved - I hope you will spend a couple of minutes on providing some extra information.
My setup and problem is described in this message: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-user&m=116957601309395&w=2 My problem is that I get an error dialog with the arguments i called tomcat5.exe with when I try to install the service. Did you encounter this problem? I have installed .Net 2.0 x64, but to me it looks like I also have the x32 version. Here is a what I have under C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\ : Framework\ v1.1.4322 v2.0.50727 Framework64\ v2.0.50727 Do you have something similar on your server? I appreciate your time :) Regards, Martin > All, > > Found the problem with installing the 64-bit version of Tomcat as a > service on Windows Server 2003 x64. > > It required .Net Framework 2 x64 to be installed so referenced modules > could be found by the compiled 64 bit version of the executable. > > Hoorah!
