Couple suggestions and a question...
First, the service.bat script should really be setting -Djava.io.tmpdir, just as the catalina.bat script does. Additionally, unless you provide %JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar to the --ImagePath, JSP compilation will fail, although you might be fooled in cases where JSP's were pre-compiled and mapped as servlets. Try out a plain-jane non-precompiled JSP. Probably also dump the contents of the work directory just to be sure.
Now for the question. How does one tell the service to use the -server VM? I've tried setting -server as one of the --JavaOptions, but that causes the server not to start. I've also tried doing...
--Java "%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll". That seems to work, but then logging (at least to stdout.log) no longer works.
I assume that "--Java java" is just going to start up the default client VM, correct? There's got to be a way to use the -server switch and not interfere with the service starting or logging to stdout stopping, otherwise this should be considered a bug in the procrun daemon.

The instructions to do it manually are at http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/daemon/procrun.html. There is also a new 'service.bat' file in the CVS http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-tomcat-catalina/catalina/src/bin/service.bat, that simplifies the process of manually installing Tomcat as a service.

I've looked through the docs, and it says the following:
"Tomcat will be installed as a Windows NT/2k/XP service no matter what setting is selected."
However, I never ran an installation program - I just unzipped a file. What do I run to install Tomcat 5 as a service? I don't see an install program.
Please forgive if this was a really dumb question. I did try to scour through the docs -- but a lot of the stuff is on the older versions of Tomcat.
Thanks
Betty
