Hi, I am fairly new to JAVA and am having a heck of a time installing Tomcat 3.1 on my windows 98 machine. I'm not sure where to start with my question so I'll just show you my console messages. If anyone can help me with this issue, I would appreciate it. I need to use Tomcat for a JAVA class I will be taking in a couple of weeks. Here is the message I get when I go to the C:\jakarta-tomcat\bin directory and type "startup": C:\jakarta-tomcat\bin>startup Starting tomcat in new window Using classpath: ..\classes;..\lib\webserver.jar;..\lib\jasper.jar;..\lib\xml.ja r;..\lib\servlet.jar;C:\jdk1.3\lib\tools.jar;C:\Java_Packages;.;C:\jakarta-tom ca t\lib\servlet.jar;C:\jakarta-tomcat\lib\jasper.jar C:\jakarta-tomcat\bin> The new window flashes then go away. This is what I get when I type "tomcat run": C:\jakarta-tomcat\bin>tomcat run Using classpath: ..\classes;..\lib\webserver.jar;..\lib\jasper.jar;..\lib\xml.ja r;..\lib\servlet.jar;C:\jdk1.3\lib\tools.jar;C:\Java_Packages;.;C:\jakarta-tom ca t\lib\servlet.jar;C:\jakarta-tomcat\lib\jasper.jar Context log: path="/examples" Adding context path="/examples" docBase="webapps/ examples" Context log: path="" Adding context path="" docBase="webapps/ROOT" Context log: path="/test" Adding context path="/test" docBase="webapps/test" Starting tomcat.

So, any suggestions would be appreciated.
