If I run startup.bat, Tomcat starts successfully. I navigated to http://localhost:8080 and saw the Tomcat page.
Unfortunately I can't get the service to start using "Tomcat6.exe //IS//" from the command line, Tomcat6w or Server Manager -> Services. I'm using all of the defaults in Tomcat6w. On the Java tab, 'Use Default' is checked and everything else is blank. I found the following error in my log: "The Tomcat6 service terminated with service-specific error 0 (0x0)." When I searched for the error in user groups, the only answer that I found was to copy msvrc71.dll to my c:/c/tomcat/bin directory. I've tried that and it doesn't seem to help.
