Hi, I just installed tomcat-4.1.24 and have set CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME...but tomcat won't start up. I am not behind a proxy and port 8080 is free...but when I run startup.bat it starts with the output: C:\>%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup.bat Using CATALINA_BASE: C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24 Using CATALINA_HOME: C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24 Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24\temp Using JAVA_HOME: C:\j2sdk1.4.1_03 then it opens a new DOS window saying it is starting tomcat-standalone and then it hits an exception saying 'target invocation exception' and closes the window! I am at a total loss...it has been a few months since I have worked with tomcat and I am sure this is an easy fix! Thanks in advance

Makes me think there's possible corruption in a jdk class file. As much as it might be a pain, have you tried re-downloading and installing both jdk and tomcat ?
