Please Help
Actually,I'm a new user to Tomcat and currently having a problem starting up the Tomcat. I have installed Tomcat 3.2.1 and jdk 1.3.1 on my PC running win98. I have set all the paths required but I kept on receiving error message saying
"Bad command or file name". These are the things I have set:
set JAVA_HOME=C: \ jdk1.3.1
set TOMCAT_HOME=C: \ jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1
Can anyone please help me to solve this problem?
TQ

Not totally sure - I do all my Java development on Linux, much less hassle,
but you might try the following:
Since it is complaining about setting it dynamically, maybe you can set it in
the environmental properties (which will probably require a reboot) - right
click on My Computer, select Properties, then select Environment (or
something like that, I'm doing this from memory, as I'm running under Linux
right now) and one of the things that shows under that should be the PATH
variable - you should be able to set that with the long (Non-DOS 8.3)
pathnames. Try plugging the info in there, rebooting, then seeing if the info
stays in the CLASSPATH.

Hie Ben,
I have make the changes but I'm facing a new error message.
Unable to ser CLASSPATH dynamically.
Note: To set the CLASSPATH dynamically on win9x systems only DOS 8.3
names may be used in TOMCAT_HOME!
Setting your CLASSPATH statically.
Using CLASSPATH:
C:\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\classes;C:\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\lib\ant.jar;C:\jakar
ta-tomcat-3.2.1\lib\jasper.jar;C:\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\lib\jaxp.jar;C:\jakar
ta-tomcat-3.2.1\lib\parser;C:\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\lib\servlet.jar;C:\jakart
a-tomcat-3.2.1\lib\webserver.jar
Starting Tomcat in new window
Cannot find file C:\jdk_1.3.1\bin\java (or one of its components).
Check to ensure the path and filename are correct and that all required
libraries are available.
Any idea to solve this, Ben?

It looks like you have spaces between:
"C: \ jdk1.3.1" should be "C:\jdk1.3.1"
"C: \ jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1" should be "C:\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1"
You also need to make sure that c:\jdk1.3.1\bin is in your PATH, otherwise
java.exe/javac.exe will not be found.
