No Start/Stop Options under Start/Programs Apache Tomcat 5.5

Hi,

I have installed Tomcat 5.5 but I do not have any Start or Stop options 
under Start/Programs Apache Tomcat 5.5 (see screenshot below). 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Thank you all for your feedback.  I don't have the icon in my system tray, 
but I am able to start and stop using the other suggestions I have 
received.

Thanks again!

Another way to handle this (assuming a Windows 2000, XP, or 2003 system):

Right click on "My Computer" and choosing "Manage" from the pop-up menu.

When the Computer Management window opens, expand "Services and
Applications" on the left side.

Click on "Services" in the expanded Services and Applications branch.

The right side will populate with a whole list of services running in
the background of your computer

The same list should include "Apache Tomcat" (toward the top as the list
is alphabetic).  Click on it and use the Start, Stop, and Restart links
that get displayed with the description.

Although that will let you start and stop the Tomcat service, it doesn't
give you the customized configuration tabs that tomcat5w.exe does.

The icon doesn't look like a Tomcat - it's a very small version of the
ASF feather with a Services gear on top of it, with a small red or green
symbol in a circle.  Hovering over it should show it as Apache Tomcat.
I don't recall having to select any particular option when installing
from the .exe, but it's been a while.

You can also run the tomcat5w.exe program from the bin directory to
configure the service.

Thanks for the feedback.  Unfortunately, I don't see anything in my system 
tray either.  Is that an option I need to enable?

No, those are not used to run Tomcat as a service - only from the
command prompt.  And, if you download and run the .exe installer, you
don't even get the .bat scripts.

There aren't supposed to be any start/stop options under the Start ->
All Programs -> Apache Tomcat 5.5 folder.  Once you install Tomcat as a
Windows service, there is an icon in the system tray you can use to
control the service.

I think you need to run the start.bat and stop.bat scripts, they should be
somewhere in your install dir.
