Hi, I'm installing Tomcat 5.5 on Windows XP Professional Box. Jdk version is 1.5. When I issue java -version on cmd prompt I get this output: java version "1.5.0" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-b64) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-b64, mixed mode, sharing)
I have already set the JAVA_HOME to the proper JRE. But at the time of installing I get this error message: "Failed to install Tomcat5 service. Check your settings and permissions. Ignore and continue(not Recommneded) with 3 usual buttons: Abort/Retry/Ignore This happens at the time of performing this action in the installation dialog box: Failed to install tomcat service Using %JAVA_HOME%\bin\client\jvm.dll And then I just cant start tomcat. Please help me out as I'm stuck at the very first step of installing tomcat.
