Help!!! I have been trying for weeks to get tomcat to install but whatever I try I am getting the SAME error. To date I have downloaded and tried 3 versions (4.0.1, 4.0.3 and 4.0.4) tried this on 2 computer (both windows 98 operating systems) and have try un-installing and reinstalling it a gazillion times (I don't know how many 0 that is but it is a lot) Every time the same thing happens: I get a "copy failed at common/lib file installing tomcat and then when I try to run it will not run JSP examples. I have written down step-by-step in more detail below.
Any advice greatly appreciated! Kirsten [EMAIL PROTECTED] 703-533-2146 Here is what I am doing 1) install Java 2 run time enviroments (file name: j2re-1_4_0_01-windows-i586.exe) this installs properly 2) change the system configuration variables (this is what is written in dos sysedit: @SET CLASSPATH=C:PROGRA~1PHOTOD~1.0ADOBEC~1;C:javadk1-4 @SET JAVA_HOME=C:javadk1-4) 3) install tomcat (as I mentioned earlier I have download multipul version this is one file example: jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3.exe) ***********THIS IS THE 1 SIGN OF PROBLEMS****** during the installation it has an error message which says "copy failed"
