Install tomcat 3.2.3 on Win 98

[smashingwebs <br...@smashingwebs.com>]

Hi,

I need help to set up tomcat 3.2.3 on windows 98.
I went to sysedit and put in TOMCAT_HOME = c:\tomcat
into autoexec.bat
I also put in JAVA_HOME = c:\jdk1.3.1_02

But when I try to run tomcat I get the message:

"You must set JAVA_HOME to point at your Java Development Kit Installation"

Is there somewhere else where I should set TOMCAT_HOME and JAVA_HOME?

Or is it some other problem?

Can anyone please help me?

Thanks Daniel...It worked!

I have been developing a jsp application on my desktop (win 2000)
and now I can further it on my laptop too.....

Best Rgds, Brennan

P.S. I was able to increase the environment memory under the dos prompt
"Properties" button
to 3072. This seems to work ok.....Thanks again!.......

Make sure that says "set JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk1.3.1_02"

The 'set' keyword is required in the autoexec.bat file.

In Windows 98, they should both be set in your autoexec.bat

Also, you might want to add the following line to your config.sys:

shell=c:\command.com /p /e:768

Make sure that the path to command.com is correct for your system.  It might 
be in c:\windows\command, or c:\win98\command, or d:\win98\command, or 
whatever...anyways...I'm sure you get the picture.

This line should give you the extra environment space you typically need for 
developing J2EE applications under Win95/98.

Also, you might want to add Java to your path.  Try the following as the last 
line of your autoexec.bat file:

set PATH=%PATH%;c:\jdk1.3.1_02
