Dear Tomcat Users List I followed the instructions from Richard Mundell on "Mini HOW-TO: Tomcat as a service on Windows Server 2003 64-bit edition" (possibly viewable here: http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=114951978732081&w=2), but have run into problems.
When I try to start the service from the service panel, Windows quickly responds with a Service Alert box saying the following: Could not start the Apache Tomcat service on Local Computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. I've dug around, but have not been able to figure out why this is happening. Here are the steps I did to try to get set up: * I'm running a Windows Server 2003 R2 64-bit AMD machine with 8 G of ram * I've configured my machine to run a 64-bit JVM * I've installed the 64 bit version of Tomcat6.exe and Tomcat6w.exe * I install the Tomcat6 service (and see no errors). According to the instructions, it's necessary to swizzle the registry, so I do the following ** I export the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Apache Software Foundation" ** I remove all the "WOW6432Node/" strings ** I import the new key, and it looks good, the key has been moved to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Software Foundation" * I try to start the service, and get the 1053 error described at top of this email. Anyone have any ideas? THANKS! PS: Have you heard any rumors about when better 64-bit service support might be released? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
