You are right, classpath does not have anything (except for my .jars) set for 1.6.0_02.
JAVA_HOME is capitalized on my system and is defined as: JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02 Java -version is: java version "1.6.0_02" However, you gave me the clue that I needed. I pulled service.bat out of the zip file and removed the service Tomcat5. Then, everything installed correctly.

This usually means you've already got a service installed by that name. Both the service name and the display name must be unique. You may need to delete the old 5.5.9 service. Tomcat 5.5 works fine on JRE or JDK 6, so there's no point in backing up to an older JVM level. You might want to consider installing from the .zip version of Tomcat rather than the .exe, since it includes a service.bat script that may give you better diagnostic information. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
