Worked like a charm Chuck. Thanks! Sure beats trying to figure out how to change file access privileges when you're not a Windows sys admin!!!
BTW, Chuck the first machine I ever worked on in my professional career was a Burroughs mainframe, back before Burroughs became Unisys. So you're teaching an old dog new tricks, even though I've been doing this longer than my mainframe career now! Thanks again. I'm off to move all my Apache apps out of Program Files, just in case. -----Original Message----- From: Caldarale, Charles R [mailto:chuck.caldar...@unisys.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 17, 2011 9:46 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Exceptions when starting Tomcat > From: Michael [mailto:mtarullo...@optonline.net] > Subject: Exceptions when starting Tomcat > When I start Tomcat using the .bat file in the bin folder I get the > following exception, several times: > java.util.logging.ErrorManager: 4 java.io.FileNotFoundException: > C:\Program Files\apache-tomcat-6.0.29\logs\catalina.2011-05-17.log > (Access is denied) Probably easiest if you just uninstall Tomcat, download the .zip version (if you haven't already), and reinstall it under something other than "Program Files". Newer versions of Windows are extremely picky about who gets to write in that directory. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
