bootstrap.jar ?

["Russell, Steve" <St...@valueoptions.com>]

Hi;

I'm trying to install tomcat as a service.

I have been using JavaService.

It is complaining that it can't find my startup class which is supposed to
be
Tomcat_Home/bin/boostrap.jar  ( org.apache.Bootstrap ).

I don't have this class.  I tried downloading tomcat again......no dice.

Where can I get it?

Works for me without any command line fixes.  I thought that the -X option
was added for some of the betas of 1.3.1.  Is it possible that you have an
"older" version of 1.3.1?

You are correct.  The JavaService program does basically the same thing as
jk_nt_service, but it traps the OS signals and doesn't relay them on to the
JVM.
