Okay -- wWe CAN start Tomcat via the command line, no problem. But when trying to start it as a SERVICE, no luck -- we look in the event logs and find "The Apache Tomcat service terminated with service-specific error 0 (0x0)." again
In JAVA_OPTS we've got "-server -XX:+UseParallelGC -Xmx1200m -XX:PermSize=120m -XX:MaxPermSize=240m -Djava.awt.headless=true" which is what DOES work from the command line. In the java tab via tomcat5w, where we can NOT start the service: -Dcatalina.base=C:\tomcat55 -Dcatalina.home=C:\tomcat55 -Djava.endorsed.dirs=C:\tomcat55\common\endorsed -Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\tomcat55\temp -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager -Djava.util.logging.config.file=C:\tomcat55\conf\logging.properties -Xmx1200m -Xms1200m -XX:PermSize=120m -XX:MaxPermSize=240m -server -Djava.awt.headless=true When we try to start the service we see "Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx1200m " in the stderr*.log output. And the jakarta_service*.log contains [2009-06-06 13:08:37] [395 javajni.c] [error] CreateJavaVM Failed [2009-06-06 13:08:37] [1000 prunsrv.c] [error] Failed initializing java C:\tomcat55\bin\bootstrap.jar [2009-06-06 13:08:37] [1269 prunsrv.c] [error] ServiceStart returned 2 Pointers welcome :( System is (different from previous thread): - windows server 2003 std edition sp2 - intel xeon cpu 3070 @ 2.66ghz - 4gb ram (physical address extension) Java is java version "1.5.0_19" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_19-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_19-b02, mixed mode, sharing) Tomcat is Server version: Apache Tomcat/5.5.27 Server built: Aug 28 2008 10:08:26 Server number: 5.5.27.0 OS Name: Windows 2003 OS Version: 5.2 Architecture: x86 JVM Version: 1.5.0_19-b02 JVM Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. -- will trillich "Tis the set of the sails / And not the gales / That tells the way we go." -- Ella Wheeler Wilcox --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
