I can only repeat myself and it´s the same that Samuel posted.
@Misha Ver: You´re right that I didn´t download it directly from the Tomcat site
, BUT the main message of my post was, that besides the download of the exe-file he has to download the zip-archive of this Tomcat version as well and use the scripts inside.
So:
1. Download and install the exe-file.
2. Download and unzip the archive of the same Tomcat version.
3. Just copy the missing scripts from the bin folder of the zip archive into the bin folder of the existing installation of Tomcat.
4. Start and stop the Server like Samuel posted.
5. Be Happy!
