whats going on???
Out of Environment Space.........thats what is going on.
Bring up the properties of your DOS window by clicking on the right mouse in the title bar.
Then goto the Memory Tab. Increase the Dynamic memory field (I am not sure what this is called. Its the Pull down list on the right top side) to something like 4096 or something. Quit the DOS window and re-start it.
Now you should be fine.

Thats actually the "Initial Environment" list value.
If it doesn't work, try rebooting your system.

Hi - 98 is stil DOS'ish enough that if you edit c:\config.sys, and add a line like:
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /P /E:2048
your terminals will always have 2048 of environment space. Adjust 2048 as needed.

... or start your tomcat from the dos-box.
Open dos-box. Change to tomcat directory with
cd C:\Tomcat4\bin (or whatever your directory is)
Then try satyas tip.
Then type startup.
You could even write your own startup-batch file. I think.
Set the environment variables (JAVA_HOME=... ).
And last line is startup.bat.

Then your poor windows98 guys dont have to change autoexec.bat.
There are lots of discussions about running tomcat on dos-clone OS (Windows98/95/Me).
By the way: In windows XP Home Edition setup is like in Windows2000.
