Have you used Tomcat in the past and now it suddenly does not work? Or, is this the first time you are attempting to deploy it as a Microsoft Windows service? > I have tried to look for the solution to this as our software use > Apache tomcat 5.5.17.

If you have any log files in \path\to\tomcat\logs, delete them (or move them somewhere else if you want to keep them) and try to start the service again. Any log files in that directory should be examined. IF you see anything out of the ordinary, investigate. If you need help, post the relevant sections of the log files (or the whole thing if you're not sure) to the list and we'll try to help. What happens if you try to start Tomcat from the command-line, like this: C:\> cd \path\to\tomcat C:\path\to\tomcat> bin\catalina.bat run [output goes here] Does anything happen? If you get any output at all, please post that back to the list and we can maybe help figure out what's going wrong. > We cannot upgrade to other tomcat versions as our software was > developed on this version. Tomcat 5.5.x versions are all very compatible with a few exceptions. IF you read the changelog, you can see any changes that might break your application. Some significant bugs and security problems have been fixed between 5.5.17 and 5.5.28 (the current version of 5.5.x). You should seriously consider upgrading no matter what else you do. > I am sure there is fix for this but I was unable to find it. The "fix" depends on the problem. get back to us after you've tried my suggestions above and we'll see what's going on. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkq7pXcACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBG2wCgnXUP4IlbQFyInr3JTizShreO /XcAn2xURKdrju3laS4jWavXQQhdDd+a =GWj3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
