Begin event threw error

[Peter Cinquini <pe...@hotmail.com>]

I'm trying to install Tomcat ver 5.0.18 to work with IIS on Windows XP I
also have Java 1.3 installed.

When I run startup.bat to start Tomcat a second window opens but this
quickly closes.
I worked out the startup.bat script runs Catalina.
When I type catalina run at the dos prompt I get the following output list
ed below the line. What does Begin threw error mean? Am I using the right
versions of Tomcat / JDK?

Using CATALINA_BASE:   ..
Using CATALINA_HOME:   ..
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: ..\temp
Using JAVA_HOME:       c:\jdk1.3
