this is how the path for jdk is set:
PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\JDK1.3.1\BIN
and this is what i get when i type "set":
C:\>set
TMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
TEMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
PROMPT=$p$g
winbootdir=C:\WINDOWS
COMSPEC=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND.COM

BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 H5 P330 T6
CMDLINE=netstat -a 2
and this is the error when clicking startup.bat in tomcat:

Your problem is a common one with Windows98. It is caused by Tomcat trying to set up long environment strings. The fix is to increase the memory allocation as follows:
Open a MS-DOS prompt window, click on the upper left corner.
open the Properties dialog, click on the memory tab
Set the initial environment to 4096
Thats all you need.
