Re: Problems in Installing

Another method to increase the environment space (that I think is better
because is not associated with a DOS window..) is to add the line:

CommandEnvSize=4096

in the [NonWindowsApp] section of your system.ini file (in \windows). It
requires a restart, after which you can try \tomcat\bin\startup. After the
restart you should be able to just double-click startup.bat of shutdown.bat.


There are some other methods to do this (you can search the archives of the
maililng list).
