so you're saying that I should download the NT version? I tried tomcat 4, but i had to keep putting jars in the classpath till i ran out of room in dos, which i had already extended. If I did not put the full jar name in the classpath, it would not find the class. So I tried tomcat 3.
I will try again in the morning, with a fresh version of the J2EE and Tomcat 5. Wish me luck. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Caldarale, Charles R" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, July 15, 2004 7:55 PM Subject: Tomcat 3 will not load on Windows 98 > > From: Donald Brewer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Re: Tomcat 3 will not load on Windows 98 > > > > 1.3.1 JDK: > > > > This release of the J2EE SDK is available for the following platforms: > > You don't want to download the Sun J2EE package - Tomcat supplies its own, and having both on your system at the same time can lead to some "interesting" events. > > You should be able to download and install the 1.4.2 J2SDK and the current Tomcat (5.0.27, ZIP version) on Win98 without any problems. Both work fine on my recently resurrected Win98SE box. You do have to modify the .bat files, since they work only on NT and above, and you can't run it as a service.
