Running Tomcat as a WinNT service

[Tom Heiber-Cobb]

I'm new to the list so I apologize if this one has come up many times 
before.
I've installed Tomcat 4.1.18 on a WinNT machine. I chose the option 
during installation that allows Tomcat to run as a service.

I made the install directory C:\Tomcat-4.1.18

The machine had (has) jdk 1.2.2 on it already.
When I had problems getting the service to work I then installed 
j2sdk1.4.1_02 (and changed the JAVA_HOME env var to point to this dir)

The stdout.log and stderr.log files have reported the same thing both 
times. The stack traces are as follows:
\logs\stdout.log

Bootstrap: Create Catalina server
Bootstrap: Class loader creation threw exception
java.lang.IllegalMonitorStateException: current thread not owner
	at 
org.apache.catalina.loader.StandardClassLoader.addRepositoryInternal(StandardClassLoader.java, 
Compiled Code)
	at 
org.apache.catalina.loader.StandardClassLoader.<init>(StandardClassLoader.java, 
Compiled Code)
	at 
org.apache.catalina.startup.ClassLoaderFactory.createClassLoader(ClassLoaderFactory.java, 
Compiled Code)
	at 
org.apache.catalina.startup.BootstrapService.init(BootstrapService.java, 
Compiled Code)
	at 
org.apache.catalina.startup.BootstrapService.main(BootstrapService.java, 
Compiled Code)

\logs\stderr.log

java.lang.NullPointerException
	at 
org.apache.catalina.startup.BootstrapService.init(BootstrapService.java, 
Compiled Code)
	at 
org.apache.catalina.startup.BootstrapService.main(BootstrapService.java, 
Compiled Code)

Any thoughts?
Thanks,
