Hi All,
I have done the following to resolve the issue but didn't help so far:
1. Installed tomcat versions 5.5.17 and 5.5.28 on another machine. These
versions of tomcat got installed properly and I was able to stop the service
using windows server 2003 service.
2. I compared the registry on both the machines (the one that works and the one
that doesn't). There is no difference in regisrty. Compared in the Software and
ControlSet sections
3. Tried copying tomcat.exe and tomcat5w.exe from working installation but
didn't work
4. Deleted the service that was not working and recreated by running the apache
tomcat installer (just created the service) everything else is same from
previous installation.
It still didn't fix the issue.
In the event log I get error message as follows
Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the Apache Tomcat service to connect.
I don't know why it gets timed out while stopping the service. Start service
just fine.
Tomcat executable is bundled with our product and when we install our product
it installs tomcat first and then our product.
The issue happens only when we install both together. It looks like the service
doesn't get created correctly so I did all of above to resolve the issue.
Any other ideas? Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Deepti
