startup/shutdown - FileNotFoundException on server.xml

           Summary: startup/shutdown - FileNotFoundException on server.xml
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.4 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: bryan.looper@unisys.com


Specifying a trailing '\' on the catalina home directory value causes a 
malformed path to be used when catalina looks for conf\server.xml, resulting a 
FileNotFoundException during startup or shutdown.

Running without the trailing '\' works just fine in the same setup.

C:\User\JavaDevelopment\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4>bin\catalina run
Using CATALINA_BASE:   c:\user\javadevelopment\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4
Using CATALINA_HOME:   c:\user\javadevelopment\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4

Using JAVA_HOME:       c:\j2sdk1.4.0_01

Starting service Tomcat-Apache
Apache Tomcat/4.0.4


Maybe the "Don't do that" resolution is appropriate here, but I must say that 
as a first time user it was quite frustrating because I wasn't getting any 
feedback from the startup script on what was going on.   (Startup, of course, 
opens tomcat in a separate window that would close instantly when the error 
occurred.)  A tip in the running.txt or graceful error message would have been 
very helpful.
