Jose, Yes. I'd rename the top level dir so you have your servlets, jsps and images saved. Otherwise, I'd zip it and copy it somewhere.

I will do it! So, i should keep saved the existing server.xml and web.xml files before the new installation starts, i guess... Isnt it?

Start the installer and one of the screens has a list of products (Tomcat, Source etc) if you scroll down, there is and unchecked item that says to install it as a service. You must check this one to get it installed. If you are re-installing you also need to make sure it installs in the same directory to prevent other problems. Once the installer completes you can run it as a service or disable the service and use the startup.bat in the bin directory to start it from a command prompt. Sometimes this is desirable when debugging things that go wrong at startup.

How can i reach there? I am talking about TomCat 4.1.18... -----Mensagem original----- De: Goehring, Chuck Mr., RCI - San Diego [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada em: terça-feira, 21 de outubro de 2003 14:22 Para: Tomcat Users List Assunto: RE: Bugs and weakness when Tomcat works a NT Service (tcservcfg) Jose, I spent a long time trying to manually setup Tomcat to run as a service. Finally ended up re-installing and checking the little checkbox that makes it usable as a service. It is unchecked by default. Once it is installed, you can change the account it executes as in the services thingy in control panel.

So, i found the nightmare main actor --> tcservcfg and the second one --> windows!!! Thus, i made the following steps: 1 - ...runned the main actor ( tcservcfg ) - OK! 2 - started up the service - OK! 3 - test the environment - FAILURE! NOW, THE NIGHTMARE begins 4 - Only the static pages are availables, so whenever my app tries to use Result Sets, I get this error message: HTTP Status 500 - type Exception report message description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request. exception java.lang.NullPointerException at BancoServlet.recuperaTopicoAssunto(BancoServlet.java:413) at BancoServlet.service(BancoServlet.java:249) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(Applica tion FilterChain.java:247) LINE 413 points to a resultset statement, see below: ring query = "Select * FROM DICAS WHERE ID_TOPICO = " + topico2; pstmt = con.prepareStatement(query); rs = pstmt.executeQuery(); if ( !rs.next() ) { // --> THIS IS LINE 413 <-- fechaconection( pstmt,rs,con); chamadevolta = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/semconteudo.jsp"); chamadevolta.forward(request,response); } 5 - I ve tried to find something about permission but i didnt find anything. 6 - THE WORST: I stopped the service and tried to work as before --> starting TomCat by running startup.bat file. Unfortunatelly, TomCat doesnt starts up ANYMORE !!! 7- Then, i ve disabled all TomCat's services 8- Tried step 6 again - FAILURE AGAIN 9 - Finally, i ve removed the Registry key of TomCat service. 10 - Tried step 6 again - FAILURE AGAIN - it is a loop, isnt it... Really, any single help will be appreciated...
