Excellent. ;-)
It may seem to you that you have not made any progress.
But you would be wrong, because there is a lot of progress :
- now /we/ know exactly what you are doing
- now /you/ have the possibility to see at exactly which point this
message appears, and maybe it's cause.
- and we may be all be able to do something about it.
That is progress.
Edit the script "service.bat".
You will see the point at which it displays the messages above (ending
in "Using JVM:...".
Right after that, in my version, is a line that goes like :
"%EXECUTABLE%" //IS//%SERVICE_NAME% --StartClass
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap --StopClass
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap --StartParams start --StopParams stop
(all in one line)
Since we're not totally sure what this "%EXECUTABLE%" is, let's add a
line to the script, just after
echo Using JVM: %PR_JVM%
echo Using executable: %EXECUTABLE%
and re-run the script.
(It will break at the same point, most probably, but with Windows one
never really knows, does one ?).
Also, do what Chuck recommended, and make sure the Java-related paths
really point to a working JVM.
It is unlikely, but always possible, that the service.bat script gets
confused, and points to something invalid.
I see such a possibility for example, if the environment variable
JAVA_HOME is set to an incorrect path, before calling the script.
Then next, try to run the above long command yourself, directly in the
command window. There may be some Windows message which we are
otherwise missing.
(replace "%EXECUTABLE%" by "tomcat6.exe" and %SERVICE_NAME% by "Tomcat6")
And you may also find interesting messages in your Windows Event Logs
(right-click on "My Computer"...Manage...Event Logs")
You can also try to call up the command "tomcat6w.exe" directly, to see
if it comes up with anything interesting.
