No, that's not normal. The startup.bat script uses the Windows "start" command to initiate the Tomcat process in a command window separate from the one the script is running in. The original command window should return a prompt almost immediately after displaying four "Using xxx" lines. If it doesn't do that, someone has modified - and broken - your startup.bat or catalina.bat scripts. Download a fresh copy of Tomcat and compare what you have with the unmodified copy. As André noted, CTRL-C can be used to cleanly terminate the Tomcat process when you've terminated the original command window. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
