Tomcat 4 as an NT Service

[JB...@silenus.com]

I am trying to get Tomcat 4 to run as an service on win2000pro.  I copied
the wrapper.properties file from my Tomcat 3.2 installation and placed it
in CATALINA_HOME\conf\ directory and used jk_nt_service to create the
service.  When I try to start the service, windows returns a message saying
the service didn't return an error.

Here my wrapper.properties file: (i included all the .jar i found just to
be safe)

# jk_service.properties - a bootstrup file for the Tomcat NT service.
#
# This file provides jk_nt_service with the needed information to
# start tomcat at a different process.
#
# As a general note, the characters $( and ) are used internally to define
# macros. Do not use them!!!
#
# Whenever you see a set of lines such as:
# x=value
# y=$(x)\something
#
# the final value for y will be value\something
#
# Normaly all you will need to modify is the first two properties, i.e.
# wrapper.tomcat_home and wrapper.java_home. Most of the configuration
# is derived from these two.
#

#
# wrapper.tomcat_home should point to the location where you
# installed tomcat. This is where you have your conf, webapps and lib
# directories.
#
wrapper.catalina_home=C:\Tomcat401

#
# wrapper.java_home should point to your Java installation. Normally
# you should have a bin and lib directories beneath it.
