installing tomcat 3.2 on windows 98
is it possible to have tomcat run on windows 98?
i downloaded the binaries for tomcat 3.2 for windows and tried to run
the tomcat.bat file. but i get an exception saying that
org.tomcat.startup.Tomcat can't be found.
i have the autoexec.bat file with the following:
TOMCAT_HOME=c:\tomcat
CLASSPATH=c:\tomcat\lib\servlet.jar;c:\tomcat\lib\webserver.jar;...etc
for each jar file in tomcat\lib
apparantly the tomcat.bat file is setting the proper classpath. any
suggestions?

You can. But, the .bat files never have worked out of the box for Win98.
Go here:

Get the small download and use the launcher. Works 99.99% of the time.

Shure you can (at least, I do it since a half year)
But be careful to start command.com with enough enviroment space
/e:4096 or more.
There is something about it in the docs\readme file....
and its a good idea to set JAVA_HOME like
JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk1.2.2
and use short DOS 8+3 filenames for TOMCAT_HOME

Hi Peter,
I ran tomcat3.2.1 on Win98 and it ran pretty good. Always start tomcat with
the "startup" command.
Actually,you need to set the classpath to point to the tomcat/lib ,the
jdk1.3 directory and the jdbc driver directroy.
One more importanat reminder:,you have to type the following command in
order to have enough memory for tomcat:
COMMAND.COM /E:4096 /P
4096=4MB,of course ,you can set it to any value provided that you machine
have such amount of memory:-)
Hope this help!

Hi,
you should remove any settings of CLASSPATH in tomcat.bat and set it in
autoexec.bat.
In tomcat.bat find label :startServer and replace with excisting code
:startServer
echo Starting Tomcat in new window
start java %TOMCAT_OPTS% -Dtomcat.home="%TOMCAT_HOME%"
org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
goto finish
has to work.
Bye.

Re: Tomcat is not starting - How to trap the startup error?
Posted by "Noel E. Lecaros" <sp...@mozcom.com>.
Hi, (your-name-here)
Assuming it's Windows, just open a DOS prompt and type the command "startup"
located in the bin subdirectory. If you get an exception filling up the
console, on NT you can simply increase the window size, reduce the console
screen font, and increase the console buffer. On Win 9x, you're hosed.
Regards,
Noel Lecaros

RE: Tomcat is not starting - How to trap the startup error?
Posted by Craig O'Brien <cr...@dynamic-apps.com>.
Sounds like you are using Windows and double clicking on the startup.bat
file????
Open your dos shell.
type java -version <enter this will confirm the presence of your java
environment with your java version
cd \location\of\tomcat\bin <enter
startup.bat <enter (I think its called startup.bat -- confirm this)
your window will stay open and you will get your error messages.
confirm that tomcat is not running by calling the tomcat homepage.
(http://localhost:8080/) check that a different jdk was not inserted in
your classpath before the one you want. Check that permissions weren't
changed.
Regards,
Craig

Hello,
I am using Tomcat as my server and it was working fine till yesterday.
Somebody was in my system to install bunch of stuff and after that, when
I tried to start the server, it starts and the JAVA console comes and it

I couldn't figure out, what is causing the tomcat not to start.
IS there any way, I can find out why tomcat is not starting. I checked

I came in late on this thread so I may not be answering the original question
but I have Tomcat-3.2.1 working on Win95. I would think Win98 would be
similiar.

Wouter,
I dont think Tomcat will work on win 98. It is not just Java. It is a

Yes it works fine, It's just java so why not...
Use the startup.bat in the tomcat/bin directory. It will set all the
appropiate enviroment variables correcly. Edit it, if needed and tomcat does
not start correcly. I would first start it from the command prompt and test
it before putting it into your autoexec.bat
