It is working for me now. I think it had to do with remnants of multiple JDK versions on my machine including RC Java 7 releases. It caused many exceptions to show in the console on start-up and a 404 response for http:localhost:8080. I uninstalled and removed all Java from the host and installed Java 7 fresh. Thanks for the responses.

Deploying under Windows XP is certainly possible. Installing multiple side-by-side versions of Sun/Oracle Java is certainly possible as well. I recommend installing Java 1.6.something and using that with Tomcat until you are able to get things working with Java 1.7.something. > I have noticed some entries of startup speeds of Tomcat 7 under Java > 7.

See Konstantin's recent post with subject "[WARNING] Index corruption and crashes in Apache Lucene Core / Apache Solr with Java 7" indicating that all is not well with Java 7... nothing specific has been found (yet?) with Tomcat that suggests that it won't work with Java 7. If you could provide more detail, it would certainly be helpful. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk429Q4ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PB8NACfXNpnQ/p+h8yS8AgKJa2ySZX3 MWEAn0vxJwPpfHlFvNu7EzEeTy7sFRA8 =oEHx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org LEGAL DISCLAIMER The information transmitted is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
