Hi, I recently installed Tomcat version 6.0.18 (Windows Installer) and installed as a service.I tried running Tomcat6.exe. But got the following error : 2011-07-25 22:21:37 Commons Daemon procrun stderr initialized java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/juli/logging/LogFactory at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.<clinit>(Bootstrap.java:54) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.juli.logging.LogFactory at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at sun.misc.Launcher$ExtClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) ... 1 more I got similar error while running catalina.bat from command prompt. After that I tried installing vsersions 7.0.16 , 6.0.32, 5.5.33 but result was same.
Environment : Windows XP , JDK1.6.0_24 , Tomcat 6.0.18 Classpath was set correctly for " /(root) , /bin , /lib" directories of tomcat since in earlier posts I read that bootstrap.jar , tomcat-juli.jar may not be accessible since classpath is not set for them, but that thing should not be there since classpath has been set correctly. Following is in the logs : [2011-07-25 22:31:15] [info] Commons Daemon procrun (1.0.5.0 32-bit) started [2011-07-25 22:31:15] [info] Debugging 'tomcat5' Service...
