I haven't changed anything from the default installation. I did the following:
1. Installed 6.0.18 as windows service 2. Launch the service after a successful installation, no problems it starts. Tried the tomcat6.exe directly, no problems. 3. Click the service tray icon to change the -Dcatalina.base directory to c:\dev\tomcat 4. Restart the service, it fails with the classnotfound exception as noted, same if I use tomcat6.exe. The c:\dev\tomcat contains my webapps etc. so it has a bin/conf/logs/shared/webapps/ directories. I'm really stumped on this one as I've used tomcat for years with no problems. Is there a CLASSPATH environment variable that needs to exist?
