Tomcat as a Windows Service quits with error

[epcos71]

Hi there,

I installed tomcat6 as a service as described in the Configuration/Installation Guide with "service.bat install Tomcat6".
When i try to start the service, it quits with a "service-specific errorcode 0" (german: "dienstspezifischer Fehlercode 0").

I use Alfresco Community 3.2, Windows Vista Home Premium 63bit AND also Windows Ultimate 32bit.

It also didn't work with previous version, like 2.9 and 3.0.

Anybody any idea ? Thanks in advance

Mike

Hi,

in the meantime I fixed the problem. This error code shows that a parameter for the JRE is not set. In my case the JAVA_HOME environment variable was not set. The error also appeared as I set a to high value for the maximum heap space for the JVM.

If this doesn't help, please post your settings of the JVM.
