I'm not sure what you mean. Tomcat can work as as Windows services, in which it never has a command prompt at all, and a lot of people run it that way.
To run Tomcat from a command prompt at though it was a Windows service is a somewhat different matter, as is starting a Windows Service from a command prompt.
The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.
You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.
