Tom, I tried responding to you off-line, but alaska.gov does not seem to like your mail address.
Basically, it sounds like you have a permissions problem with the account under which Tomcat runs. By default, the Tomcat service runs as the Local System account, so that account needs appropriate access to %CATALINA_HOME% (where Tomcat is installed), and its subdirectories. I hope that helps. /mde/ --- On Fri, 7/17/09, Burton, Tom (DOR sponsored) <tom.bur...@alaska.gov> wrote: > From: Burton, Tom (DOR sponsored) <tom.bur...@alaska.gov> > Subject: tomcat install/testing help. > To: users@tomcat.apache.org > Date: Friday, July 17, 2009, 5:51 PM > I've been trying to get tomcat and > netbeans to work properly on my new > computer.
