Failed to install Tomcat5 service

Hi!

I got this error when trying to install Tomcat 5.5.23 on Windows XP:

	Failed to install Tomcat5 service.
	Check your settings and permissions
	Ignore and continue anyway (not recommended)?

the above error occurs with these status:
	......
	tomcat-users.xml written
	Remove folder: C:\Temp\confinstall
	Using Jvm: C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_11\bin\client\jvm.dll

I abort the installation at this point.

After searching the Google, I tried to set the environment variable
TEMP and TMP to C:\Temp, but that doesn't help either.

When I open the Services (Local) window, I see that there is a service
named Apache Tomcat (Apache Tomcat 5.5.23 Server -
http://tomcat.apache.org/" ...
I think this service is created but not being remove when I abort the
Tomcat installation.

Please help, thank you!

I had the same problem while I was installing Tomcat 5.5.9 and I observed
that there was a service defined for tomcat installed previously of version
6.
Once I uninstalled that version of Tomcat the problem was fixed.

Hope this would others having same problem!

CAn some tell me how to enter the instructions below:

1) Start | Run and type cmd in the Open:  Click OK. 

I go to the start biutton, Run and type Open <return>

I get a DOS window and when I enter sc delete Tomcat5, it says "specified
service does not exist as an installed service"

But when I try to install it, I get the message Check for permissions nd
settings.

Re: Failed to install Tomcat5 service

Hi!

The problem is resolved by deleting Tomcat5 service from Windows XP
and redo the Tomcat installation:

1) Start | Run and type cmd in the Open:  Click OK.
2) Type: sc delete Tomcat5
3) Reboot the system
