Running batch files when using as a NT service

[David Oxley <da...@staffplanner.co.uk>]

Are there any issues with running batch files that call external programs
when Tomcat is set up as an NT service. 
I have a problem that when using the startup.bat my COBOL routine gets
kicked off fine, but when Tomcat is a service the COBOL returns an error
code and never executes. I have a feeling its to do with environment
variables and I am still investigating, but I thought I would just ask if
there were any issues with doing this.

Thanks.
