Tomcat implementation: please help
Hi,
i'm new to Tomcat, i've downloaded Tomcat (5.5.25 Windows Installer) and am
trying to do the "Head First Servlets & JSP"- Book.
In the book, it says that one can start Tomcat by entering %bin/startup.sh
from the home directory (which is Tomcat 5.5). But in this directory,
startup.sh does not exist. The way i got Tomcat running is by doubleclicking
the file "tomcat5w" in the tomcat 5.5/bin/ directory. Do i miss anything?
I need to know this as later in the book it says to shutdown by entering
%bin/shutdown.sh, that isn't existing either.
Thnaks, Patrick

Make sure to create the tomcat variables on windows side.
Also, what does your logs says ?

Subject: Re: Tomcat implementation: please help
Thanks for the feedbacks. I've downloaded Tomcat 6.x (zip) and extracted it
to:
"C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat".
The extraction put an additional directory underneeth
(apache-tomcat-6.0.14), that i've deleted, so that my home directory is
Tomcat and the subdir's (bin, common,...) are directly beneath Tomcat.
Is that correct so far?
Then i've changed the Tomcat_Home variable to:
"C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat\;"
Then i start Tomcat by launching tomcat/bin/startup.bat. A command prompt
window briefly appears.
But then when i go to the browser and enter "http://localhost:8080/" i get
"cannot find server".
Any idea where i can troubleshoot further?
Thanks again, Patrick

Hi,
the log file is empty!
Then i've reinstalled everything: JDK and Tomcat. I've set the JAVA_HOME &
TOMCAT_HOME variables.
I've changed the Tomcat port from 8080 to 1977; no change, logfile still
empty and "cannot find server".

Look in the logs to see what the problem is. If you haven't shut down
the previous Tomcat instance that was running as a service, it may be
holding the ports, not allowing the new installation to use them.

For some unfathomable reason, the various scripts are not included in
the .exe download, but are in the .zip one. The .exe version installs
Tomcat as a service; the .zip gives you more options.
Scripts ending with .sh are for Linux/UNIX systems; .bat is the proper
extension for Windows.
If you're just starting with Tomcat, I'd suggest using the latest 6.0
version, not 5.5.
