I am running Apache Tomcat 5.0.25 on Windows 2003. When I reboot my system and go to a command prompt and type in net start "Apache Tomcat" after about 10 seconds I get an error that says "service could not be started". MSG 3523. If I look in the services it shows the service is started. If I look at the eventviewer it also shows NO errors and that it took 21 seconds to start. If I kill tomcat and issue the net start again from the command line it says that it is started successfully. The second time it only takes about 5 sec. to start. This seems to be a problem of HOW long it takes to start the first time after a reboot. Any help would be appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/net-start-%22Apache-Tomcat%22-fails-with-error-3523-tp17694162p17694162.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
