Windows 98 startup problem

Hello,

I hopelessly try and use Tomcat v3.1 on my Win98 platform but I always get an error message at startup that says something like "Insufficient Environment Space". 

I think that this problem avoids Tomcat from accessing the compiler and so no JSP page can be compiled.

It always happens at the line "set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar" of the tomcat.bat file and I'm sure that the CLASSPATH and JAVA_HOME variables have been set correctly (set JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk1.3 ...)

Can anyone help me ?

Thanks.

Olivier.

The only thing you´ve got to do is increse the DOS window´s memory , change the value from "default" to "4096" k , you can do this creating a sortcut in the desktop and selecting it with the rigth button. Sorry but my
english isn´t very nice.

Hi,

from an old posting (found in the list archive at <http://archives2.real-time.com/pipermail/tomcat-users/>):

   1.Close the DOS window (the error can corrupt its CLASSPATH variable).
   2.Open a new DOS window.
   3.Click on the MS-DOS icon at the top left of the window.
   4.Select the Properties option.
   5.Click on the Memory tab.
   6.Adjust the Initial Environment drop-down box from Auto to 2816.
   7.Click OK.
   8.Start the server.

Regards
Christian
