Hi, I am new to activiti, and have a problem with the installation. I downloaded activiti-5.4. on my windows seven machine When I first tried ant.demo.start I git an error with the tomcat installation
I the tried again, first downloading tomcat apache-tomcat-6.0.32-windows-x86.zip . When the unsuccessfull instalation is terminated, i have my own dowloaded file apache-tomcat-6.0.32-windows-x86.zip, but also an apache-tomcat-6.0.32.zip file in my donwloads folder. The apache-tomcat-6.0.32.zip file is not expandable.
Here are the log when it came to the installation of tomcat tomcat.install:
internal.tomcat.unzip: [unzip] Expanding: c:\downloads\apache-tomcat-6.0.32.zip into c:\activiti\ap ps

Seems like something is wrong with the tomcat zip (corrupted while downloading eg.). Can you delete the apache-tomcat-6.0.32.zip file, and running the setup agian?
