Hi! Ok, but adding the path to javajre/bin I making the service finding the dll which is in the bin directory.
I had the exact same problem and by adding the JAVA_HOME and PATH solved my problems, then if it's a good thing to do I don't know. There is a bugzilla describing the issue here: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41538 Regards Per Jonsson -----Original Message----- From: Layton Berry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: den 26 mars 2007 19:46 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat on Windows Server 2003 R2 No, these environment variables are not needed unless you take the zip file distribution of Tomcat 6 and try to run it in a command window. The standard distribution uses a service, and the service requires the C run time support package, ie., msvcr71.dll, but the distribution is not including it. A simple test on a machine with a working Tomcat 6 service can reproduce the poster's original error messages. Just stop the service, find msvcr71.dll in the windows SYSTEM32 directory and rename it temporarily. (Assuming nothing else is using it.) Then start the service. The service will not start, and the jakarta_service log file will show the poster's error messages. Then restore the msvcr71.dll to the correct name and start the service again. This time it will work. If you are running the zip file distribution in a command window, you are not running the windows service. In that case, your environment variables are important.
