Unable to Start Tomcat Service on W2000

["Tim Perala (MP)" <tp...@mnpower.com>]

I've run into a problem that perhaps someone else has seen and can save me
some trouble in diagnosing the problem...

The system in question is a W2000 server with IIS (SP2).  I am installing
Tomcat to run as an NT service.  I receive the
following error when attempting to start the "Jakarta" service from the
Service control-panel applet after installing it via the
jk_nt_service.exe -I Jakarta <path_to_propertiesfile> ...

	Could not start the Jakarta service on the local computer.
	The service did not return an error.  This could be an internal
windows error, or an internal service error.
	If the problem persists, contact your system administrator.

OK, great.  What do you do when you _are_ the system administrator?

I have verified that Tomcat will actually run...
	C:\>cd /d %TOMCAT_HOME%
	D:\Tomcat>startup

Things seem to work fine.

If I manually run "jk_nt_service.exe Jakarta", I get the following error...

	C:\> cd /d %TOMCAT_HOME%
	D:\Tomcat>src\local\jk_nt_service.exe Jakarta
	Asked (and given) winsock 1.1
	Error: StartServiceCtrlDispatcher failed.

I'm not sure if that is useful or not.

I have modified conf\wrapper.properties (properly I think).

I have successfuly installed Tomcat to run via the ISAPI filter in IIS on
other systems.  I don't recall running into this
particular problem, and I do not know how to diagnose the problem.

Any ideas or references?  Thanks for your help.
