service.bat did not work properly; Unable to find a javac compiler

           Summary: service.bat did not work properly; Unable to find a
                    javac compiler
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.27
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: leif.hanack@t-systems.com


When using the /bin/service.bat on a windows system the service is created, 
but seems to leave a not 100% functional tomcat. tomcat is starting fine. If 
you browse a uncompiled jsp, you receive the following message:

..
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
..
Unable to find a javac compiler;
com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the classpath.
Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK
	org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.compilers.CompilerAdapterFactory.getCompi
ler(CompilerAdapterFactory.java:106)
..

The environment variables are set correct! Running the /bin/startup script 
everything works fine, i.e. jsp's got compiled correct.

At my web-search i found people who have the same problem, but i couldn't 
found the bug in the database. Someone tell to use the windows-installer-exe 
(jakarta-tomcat-5.0.27.exe) and define the JAVA_HOME to use. I've done this 
and the guy was right. 

The service that was installed within the installation process of jakarta-
tomcat-5.0.27.exe works fine. This service compiles jsp's as well, but the 
service.bat did not!

It would be great to hear soon from you:)

Thanks in advance, Leif
