Fatal error:
Unable to launch target VM.
If I run it by clicking on the bat file directory I get this error in my catalina log file below:
May 27, 2013 5:04:48 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start
SEVERE: Cannot start server. Server instance is not configured.
Kindly advise me on what to do to resolve this issue.

Answer 1

Yes I did that all the commands give me error.
If I use the startup.bat I get a list of errors ending with:
org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start SEVERE: Cannot start server. Server instance is not configured.
but I have configured the instance using the following settings for windows:
SET CATALINA_HOME = C:\WCS11gR1\tomcat
SET CATALINA_BASE = C:\WCS11gR1\tomcat
SET JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21
SET JAVA_OPTS=-Xmx1500m
SET CS_HOME=C:\WCS11gR1\home
SET CATALINA_OPTS=-XX:MaxPermSize=192m -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Dnet.sf.ehcache.enableShutdownHook=true -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
