Thanks! [WAS] RE: Help! Can't install Tomcat

Andrew and Raphale,

Thanks for the help! I changed my JAVA_HOME from "c:\jdk1.3.1\lib" to
"c:\jdk1.3.1" and now the JS scripts work. So I assume Tomcat is set up
properly...

Tomcat ignores CLASSPATH (have a look at startup.bat to see what
I mean).  You can either change JAVA_HOME to point to the *JDK*
root directory (recommended), or manually change startup.bat to
include tools.jar in the CLASSPATH.
