If I remember correctly, this is due to a bug in the JDK and you can read
all about it in the jakarta tomcat-user archives as well as in the bug
reports on the Sun site (www.javasoft.com). I used the Alexandria Software
companies Java service wrapper JavaService.exe . It is free, distributable
and it works well. I am sure there are other service wrappers out there
too.

Subject: Running Tomcat as a Windows service
Hello,
I installed Tomcat as a Windows (NT) service using jk_nt_service and set the
service's startup type as automatic, but when I log off, the service shuts
down. Is this a bug (in Tomcat, jk_nt_service, or the JRE) and, if so, do
you know if the problem is being addressed? If it's not a bug, are there
instructions that outline additional steps required to keep the service
running?
Thank you.
