Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi,

Have searched the net and a number of forums of forums including this one, to no avail.

Have just installed Apache Tomcat 5.5.17 using the *.exe, and seems to be configured fine.

My TomCat bin directory holds the following files:

bootstrap.jar
commons-logging-api.jar
jmx.jar
tomcat5.exe
tomcat5w.exe
tomcat-juli.jar


There are no *.bat files.

Each time I start TomCat from Windows Services I get the following message:

"Windows could not start the Apache Tomcat on Local Computer. For more info, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor , and refer to service-specific error code 0."

The Event log does not expand much either. What is missing in the configuration?

Thx
