Please care to remove the semi colon at the end of defining user variables such as JAVA_HOME, CATALINA_HOME

I have got the same problem, I copied the path location of JRE_HOME

JRE_Home= "C:Progra******** ;"

Here i have entered Semicolon which we should not , I removed it, then Tomcat Started successfully .

So Semicolon must be removed at the end after setting path JRE_HOME or JAVA_HOME or CATALINA_HOME .

Answer 3

set JAVA_HOME :C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_26
CLASSPATH :C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_26\bin
CATALINA_HOME : C:\Program Files\apache-tomcat-6.0.35

Answer 4

Open up your catalina.bat / catalina.sh .. and check for CATALINA_HOME , this could have been hardcoded if you have copied Tomcat from somewhere.

Answer 5

You also need to set the JAVA_HOME variable to point to the JDK, not JRE. Tomcat must know were Java is installed. It needs the JDK. In the end restart computer.

At first you have to mention tomcat up to tomcat's version refer below

CATALINA_HOME: C:\Program Files\apache-tomcat-6.0.35; then set CLASSPATH variable to

CLASSPATH : C:\Program Files\apache-tomcat-6.0.35\lib;

then finally edit path variable to PATH: .;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin;

NOTE: a semicolon(;) must be put at the end of each and every variable.
