tomcat_home

843835Nov 14 2001 — edited Dec 8 2001
i am not quite sure how to do the following. i am using windows 98 and trying to install and configure tomcat4.0.
1: create a new environment variable called TOMCAT_HOME and point it to the tomcat home directory.
2: set the environment variable JAVA_HOME to point to the root directory of the JDK hierarchy.

3: set the %path% environment variable to include hte java interpreter(java.exe).
NOTE:this what i have set in my autoexec.bat file
SET Path=C:\tomcat\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1;"%Path%";
SET Path=C:\JDK1.3.1\BIN;"%Path%";

if i run startup i get the following error message:
you must set JAVA_HOME to point at your java development kit installation

thanx
