Hi, Have you looked in %TOMCAT_HOME%\logs\jvm.stderr? This message looks familiar. There appears to be an issue with the wrapper.properties file (the one you should specify as a command-line argument to jk_nt_service.exe) in that the property "wrapper.jvm.options" is not being read properly. Either remove this from the wrapper.cmd_line (found at the end of the file) or set "wrapper.jvm.options=-Xrs". This issue is actually documented "somewhere" in the mailing list, which makes a case for better documentation for Tomcat.

I have disabled tomcat.exe in my services and restarted the server, but the service doesn't start. My operating system is in swedish but this is an error I found in this group that looks like it: *** A system error has occurred. System error 1067 has occurred. The process terminated unexpectedly. *** I couldn't find an answer to the old message so I ask again. Why can't I have this service started. Just to see that it wasn't my server that was messed up, I installed tomcat on win2000 prof (sp2) with default IIS and it generates the same error. If I try to start the service in the Command Prompt (jk_nt_service -s Tomcat) and it generates this error: ***** Asked (and given) winsoc Starting Tomcat. Tomcat failed to start. ***** The service is started by following command: jk_nt_service.exe Tomcat in win2000 services. If I try that in the Command Promt I get the following error: **** Asked (and given) winsock 1.1 Error: StartServiceCtrlDispatcher failed. *** Can it have to do with spaces in my tomcat installation dir. d:\Java\Apache Tomcat 4.0 ?
