Can't start Apache TomCat 6.0 on Windows 2003 Server

843840Oct 12 2007 — edited Oct 13 2007

I downloaded TomCat 6.0 and installed the .exe. Everything was smooth and i left most of the settings as default. I guess port 8080, etc. I'm having problems starting my Tomcat 6.0 service in "Configure" on my windows 2003 server. It was unable to start the service after install. Prior to this, I downloaded and install j2se jre 1.4.2_16 to C:\program files\java.

I do need some help, been trying to debug this for sometime, looked at logs and all.

Anyone had the same problem or know anything based on these logs below. Thanks!

The error in the logs are:
