Starting up Apache-tomcat 5.5.28

[M A]

Hello I'm trying to start Tomcat 5.5.28. I have Java JRE installed: jre1.6.0_07.

JRE_HOME system variable works, I checked it by "cd %JRE_HOME%", whicjh takes me to C:\jre1.6.0_07.

Tomcat is unzipped into C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.28

I run it:
C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.28\bin>startup.bat
and get this error:
Files was unexpected at this time.

I have Windows XP x64 Edition SP2.

How do I get Apache-Tomcat running?

Regards, Dmitri

The process you described should have worked.  I suspect you have some environment variable that the Tomcat scripts are using that is set to an unusual value; in particular it may need quotes around the value if it contains embedded spaces.  Do a "set" command to see what is set at the point when you're about to run the script; post the results if nothing obvious pops out.

Try getting rid of the above.  Even though it is wrapped by quotes, it causes a problem.  The JRE_HOME setting will suffice.

(Cue André's highly appropriate rant about spaces in path names... :-)

Thank you for helping, now the server works. JAVA_HOME was left there from using by some other application, I didn't think it could cause a problm.

R i g h t.

To which should maybe be added the uncertain interpretation of
backslashes inside quoted strings.
