Path not found

Hi all,
I had some problems with tomcat 4.0. So i installed tomcat 4.0.1 and now when i try to set it up and start tomcat, i get "The system cannot find the path specified" in the command window where i executed:
%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup
also tried: 
%CATALINA_HOME%\catalina\src\bin\startup

Both of these commands didn't work. I checked the CATALINA_HOME env variable and it is set to C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0

Does anyone have an idea as to what the problem is.. and where i'm doing a mistake...
Looks like there are some significant changes made from tomcat 4.0 to 4.0.1.

Thanks in advance
Praveen

If you loaded from the RPM distribution of Tomcat, you should be aware
that it is organized totally differently, so you'll have to consult the
documentation that came with it to understand where the files are (and
what prerequisites you are assumed to have loaded separately).

IMHO it is far more straightforward to download and install the .zip or
.tar.gz version, which has everything you need (except a JDK and the JSSE
encryption classes for using SSL) all in one download.

(Note also that a hopefully-final beta of Tomcat 4.0.2 with a bunch of bug
fixes was just posted on the Jakarta web site last night.)

I think i am missing some files in my new installation of tomcat 4.0.1 coz
in the version 4.0 there was servlet.jar in common\lib.

There is no common folder under jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1.

I think similarly some more files like xeres.jar also is missing. What are
all the files required to successfully run aa JSP application in tomcat.

Thanks in advance

Ah - as I understand it the env var CATALINA_HOME should be set to just
c:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1

For simplicity and greater visibility, its probably worth opening a DOS box
(assuming you're on Windows of course) and browse to
c:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1\bin, then type 'startup' from there. That way you'll
get to see the error messages it throws.

Hi Ian,
I think the env variable is also fine. It is set to
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1\catalina\src

and when i execute %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup the tomcat window just popped
up and closed.
Any ideas...

Thanks
Praveen

Perhaps your new install of 4.0.1 is using a path of
c:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1, in which case your env. var. needs updating.
