Chris, I'm not clear on what you're specifying. First you suggest that there shouldn't be a file tomcat7/bin/service.bat but then later cut text from it. The file exists on the 7.0.42.zip that I have on my laptop and on my server.
Here is the line from that file that I was looking at to properly set the classpath for tomcat-juli.jar. It seems to match what you pasted set "PR_CLASSPATH=%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar;%CATALINA_BASE%\bin\tomcat-juli.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat-juli.jar" ________________________________ From: Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net> To: Tomcat Users List <users@tomcat.apache.org> Sent: Thursday, September 5, 2013 12:42 PM Subject: Re: 7.0.42 - tomcat-juli.jar not found on classpath -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Mike, On 9/4/13 4:42 PM, Mike Abernethy wrote: > I installed Tomcat 7.0.42 on my Windows 2008 server.

I just downloaded the 7.0.42 .zip file and it does not include this script. (It's not in the .tar.gz bundle, either, which I already had). Did you take it from Tomcat 6? If so, this might be a Tomcat 6 problem that you have make into a Tomcat 7 problems. > However, when I start the service in Windows, it fails with the > following error message WARNING: Failed to scan > [file:/C:/tomcat-instances/project/bin/tomcat-juli.jar] from > classloader hierarchy java.io.FileNotFoundException: > C:\tomcat-instances\project\bin\tomcat-juli.jar (The system cannot > find the path specified) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native > Method) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(ZipFile.java:214) > > Looking into the service.bat file, it looks like the CLASSPATH is > supposed to be looking in CATALINA_BASE\bin and then > CATALINA_HOME\bin for the tomcat-juli.jar, but it appears that it > is not doing this.

Line 134 of the bin/service.bat you can find in the SVN tree[1] has this to say: set "PR_CLASSPATH=%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar;%CATALINA_BASE%\bin\tomcat-juli.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat-juli.jar" So, Tomcat 7 definitely looks like it's looking in both CATALINA_BASE and CATALINA_HOME (in that order). If you *are* using the Tomcat 7 service.bat file, then perhaps you have a file permissions issue: is LOCAL SERVICE (or whomever local services run as on your version of Windows) allowed to read that path? - -chris [1] http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/tc7.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_7_0_42/bin/service.bat?view=markup -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSKMJ6AAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYzt8P+weRBp+1u7mKXVtQSaXXcdQf 5AGZ4GwOXhhXMZZfHiImAqUygogd8QVEZ4mIKwexAdiOGj38yNVZnAi42GRVC+Wc O1HRHgC+D12ullg7/py7iHot0QQUEqtu77tSwfbUCue/xWan+u3wnUuRUmZDfZp9 eSBei7M/rbNcsPKIKPmvj4PXo1Q3h8RGBmXUKl/IBqj3aTNHuifLamf7pAPauS+q GRiKJjFu4tpDal68tXZW43AmK9su1mgZu+YGl/cH9Dr9fMkKhDi5v/bGlRT4PB2X Bgf0hm06PaQyP2UA2V21el+N7B/Hco4LvzgnZ38PascppFiC9NKwp7X7GXZdxrG7 r2mSn9CHShZYQg3sArHCHDvNNkcvQp7IBpVXpV73iH2ULkm2VrwA23vK6RgZ4NQ+ Mu2Y+o9PBH0/5Adhj9ohzydih/fDaCTqAlLaDPqTIESdJX1ynkyvDHfsYuReRc43 /xrMt2Ct+zSBelSaAmt2kdWoXnyPPCZb3vab+mPztJbzBd3WVCkuw0IW1r7Uio3K SmIv/NFP359sGGBWP3/HP8aS9XzAP34SolP23H5mUiyjl7Qe7vj/WmyDl7nw0Zgo MnA2Ec6ydG8cGZIAPYvuPQs/UfLG0Bgf5R/luqd8PniGB8x9xJqzBtyPzN2zGwhV 0vfOfcW7+J7j7MevnYyo =RXA1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
