Hi, I trying to follow the instructions for installing Tomcat 3.3 as an NT Service on an NT Server 4 SP6A system.
I'm encountering a problem with I think relates to my syntax in the wrapper.properties file, as the installation directory for my tomcat has a space in it. I originally coded the two key definitions in the wrapper.properties file as :- wrapper.tomcat_home=G:\Apache Group\jakarta-tomcat-3.3 wrapper.java_home=g:\jdk1.3.1_02 As this is where I have installed the Tomcat and JDK code respectively. When I try to start the tomcat service, I get 'Tomcat Failed to start', and in the jvm.stderr file in the logs directory, I have the message :- java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Group\jakarta-tomcat-3/3\lib\tomcat/jar Exception in thread "main" >From this I deduced, possibly erroneously, that the space in the directory path for Tomcat was causing the problem. However, I have tried every combination of quotes I can think of to enclose the tomcat_home directory, and they all lead to a Tomcat Failed To Start message, and this time no logs either. Can you help me with the coding of wrapper.properties to get this to work ? I tried searching on the jakarta site and the general web I didn't find anything that helped. The only worked examples of a wrapper.properties file I found all used directory names with no spaces in them. I guess I could start again by uninstalling tomcat and all my webapps and install tomcat in a directory with no spaces, but I would really rather not.......................... Needless to say, everything works just fine running the startup.bat file, but I would prefer to run this as a service, as it makes the system bootup automation easier, as I can establish dependencies between services, and also monitoring is easier for services.
