My environment:
Windows XP-Pro Tomcat 6.0.16 I'm trying to set up Tomcat as a service so that I can use my computer as a server for dev/test purposes. Hoping to drop a .war file into \webapps, and make it available that way. I can't start Tomcat using startup.bat because my JAVA_HOME variable is not recognized even though I have set it to point to the jdk folder. I have been able to set JAVA_HOME only under User Variables - permissions do not allow me to set System Variables - is this the problem? All input much appreciated. Many thanks! -bob
