Problems running as an NT Service
I have a servlet that works fine when running TomCat
from a command line.
When I attempt to run the servlet as a service, my
servlet can not open files for read access that it
could open when running under TomCat from the command
line...
I have read the archives for similar issues, and have
tried to set up my service Run As user to have access
to the files. I must be missing something or am
completely brain dead.
Any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks,
-Chris.

All,
Thanks for the suggestions. I found my problem. Here
is a short synopsis in case anyone else runs into
this.
Assuming the problem was security related, I moved my
servlet into it's own context and added rules to
tomcat.policy for the permissions I needed. I checked
the SecurityManager.checkRead(String fileName) and I
had the needed access...
It turned out that in the process of configuring
wrapper.properties I changed the order of the jars in
my classpath. I am using Xalan 2 and ended up with the
wrong parser being instantiated.
Re-order the classpath and everything is ok!
Thanks for the suggestions.
-Chris.

Just one quick idea..
Have you looked at the NTFS permissions on the directories in question? Make sure that the Local System account has full permissions, otherwise the service will have access problems.
