They slightly changed the registry keys they use, so the installer doesn't
work anymore :-(
To fix it, add a String value of "1.4" called CurrentVersion under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit.
Do the same for the Java Runtime Enviroment key, and I think it should work.

RE: Problem with jdk1.4 beta 3 installer and Tomcat 4.0.1
Posted by Andrew Birchall <an...@rchive-it.com>.
Im getting this problem as well. I have JDK 1.2 installed and
"CurrentVersion" set to "1.2" under the JDK and JRE registry keys but it still
doesn't work.
There is obviously a bug in the Tomcat installer.
Does anyone at Jakarta know about this problem and know how to get round it?
Thanks
Andy
