Folks: Thanks so much for your help, guidance and support. By fixing the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the SDK I was able to successfully start the Tomcat 4.1 server.
Now I will proceed with the next challenges ahead.

I think the problem maybe with the JAVA_HOME env var that I need to define. I will try this out and let you know if it fixes the problem. Yes, I do volunteer in addition to being very busy with my career as an IT architect.

My guess : you simply have a "CR" or a quote misplaced in your startup.bat file. This can be the result of a variable value being inserted, maybe by another script which calls startup.bat. Add some "echo" statements around the place where you see a command using, for example, JAVA_OPTS.

Also note that Tomcat allow specification of command-line properties via environment variables, and you may have one with an invalid value. The variables are CATALINA_OPTS and JAVA_OPTS in more modern versions of Tomcat; I don't know if there's anything corresponding in the ancient one you're using. > > - Chuck > > > THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
