[Ben Souther]

Can you tell us a little about your install?
What OS?
What JDK?
Are you running any firewalls, Norton?

How did you install it? Zip file? Exe file? as a service?
How are you starting Tomcat, script files, batch files, start menu items, windows service manager???

Have you properly set all of your environment variable?

[sreedhar boggarapu]

Hi Ben Souther,

Thanks for the response.Please find the details you asked for.

OS : Windows XP Home Edition
JDK : JDK 1.4
Firewalls : No
AntiVirus : mccafe
Tomcat 5.0.28 : .exe , Service as Manual
Start Up : windows service manager

Environment Variable :
JAVA_HOME pointing to the c:\JDK 1.4 which is JDK Home.

Thanks & Regards,
Sreedhar

Hi Sreedhar,

Did you also set environment variables for J2EE and Tomcat?
The ones on my computer are set as: J2EE_HOME -> c:\j2sdkee1.3.1
and CATALINA_HOME -> C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.0
(where I had Tomcat installed).

Also note that in some intallations, Tomcat will automatically
start whenever your computer is started. Attempting to restart Tomcat
when it is already running will not work but I believe that the error
message is different that the ones that you received. (You can also
shutdown and then restart Tomcat as an option).

Tomcat, when installed with the .exe installer, doesn't rely on environment variables.

Have you tried disabling your anti-virus software before starting up Tomcat?

Any answer on this one? I may be having a similar problem.

Help please (if this is the wrong forum, please let me know)!

Hi, I installed a fresh JDK (1_5_0_02-windows-i586-p), JRE (1.5.0_01), J2EE (1.4_2005Q1), Apache web server (2.0.53-win32-x86-no_ssl) and Tomcat (5.5.7 - I also tried it with 5.0) . I installed XP Service Pack 2 (don't know if that is relevant at all).

The Tomcat service seems to start (green light and all), but in the first couple of seconds, Tomcat takes over my processor (at like 80%) and it starts writing to the stdout log (stdout was set to auto), repeatedly. After being up for like 20 min the log was well over 1 GB in size. It showed the below exceptions repeating ad infinitum.

I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the above - does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this (Question #1)?

Is it possible this is resulting from classpaths not being setup correctly? Could someone please tell me what my CLASSPATH and PATH enviro variables should be fod JDK, J2EE, JRE, etc... (Question #2)? Both in general and specifically to be found by Tomcat. They are installed in:

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_02
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_02
C:\Sun\AppServer

PATH was: .;C:\Sun\AppServer\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_02\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_02\bin
CLASSPATH was: .;C:\tomcat\webapps\project\WEB-INF\classes;C:\Sun\AppServer\lib;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_02\lib;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_02\lib;C:\Sun\AppServer\lib

I even tried using shortnames for my paths. I don't need to do this, do I (Question #3)? Here's what my variables are now. I did this all manually and I have no idea if I did it right:

J2EE_HOME = C:\Sun\AppSer~1
JAVA_HOME = C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk15~1.0_0
JRE_HOME = C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk15~1.0_0\jre\lib (?? or should I use jre15~1.0_0??)
CLASSPATH = C:\Progra~1\Java\jre15~1.0_0.;%JAVA_HOME%\lib;%JRE_HOME%\lib;%J2EE_HOME%\lib
PATH = %JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin;.;%J2EE_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\bin

Version incompatibility (Question #4)??

Thanks! I am totally stumped.

I have the same problem. Do you have any solution for this?
