yes you're right: I will get rid of CLASSPATH settings; as mentioned in
my OP, I don't usu. set it but did so now for trouble-shooting
purposes... (and yes SDK is installed, I can compile stand-alone
classes fine..)
here's what is was: I have always run Tomcat on port 80, just so don't
have to put port no. in url....;) but what do you know, you can't do
that in Vista... yesterday when I was trouble-shooting this I saw
somewhere an error that port 80 was being used already...
so had to switch back to port 8080 and voila.....;)
I guess something to keep in "collective" memory of this group in case
get this same question again soon...
thank you all very much for your responses..

for Tomcat I have set CLASSPATH thus:
set
CLASSPATH=.;apache-tomcat-5.5.23\common\lib\servlet-api.jar;ap
ache-tomcat-5.5.23\common\lib\jsp-api.jar
Get rid of the CLASSPATH - it need not and should not be set for running
Tomcat. What you have above will certainly cause problems, since
critical jars are now visible to multiple classloaders.
If you have APR installed (bin\tcnative-1.dll), remove it for initial
testing.
Are you trying to run Tomcat as a service or via bin\startup.bat? (If
you have no startup.bat, get the .zip download and install that instead
of the .exe version.) Debug with the scripts first, before attempting
to run Tomcat as a service. When run from the script, what do the
command prompt windows show? What's in Tomcat's logs directory?
