If you don't notice that you HAVE to set JAVA_HOME before tomcat is installed,
tomcat will NOT work as a service.  This will cause no end of pain because only
one bug report even mentions this issue.  Google did not reveal the fix.

  * Set an environment variable JAVA_HOME to the pathname of the directory
-   into which you installed the JDK release.
+   into which you installed the JDK release.  WINDOWS NOTE: Tomcat will
+   NOT work as a service if this is not set prior to installing tomcat.
