Question

*installed j2sdk1.4.1_03 to C:\j2sdk1.4.1_03
*installed Tomcat_4.1.24.exe to C:\Tomcat_4.1
MSDOS
*In DOS i set the JAVA_HOME environment vairable to C:\j2sdk1.4.1_03
*Changed directory to C:\Tomcat_4.1\bin
*typed startup
The following appeared
Using CATALINA_BASE: ..
Using CATALINA_HOME: ..
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: ..\temp
Using JAVA_HOME: c:\j2sdk1.4.1_03
C:\Tomcat_4.1\bin>
Then another DOS window appeared and displayed the following
01-Jul-2003 11:26:38 org.apache.commons.modeler.Registry loadRegistry
INFO: Loading registry information
01-Jul-2003 11:26:38 org.apache.commons.modeler.Registry getRegistry

INFO: jk running ID=0 time=0/220 config=C:\Tomcat_4.1\bin\..\conf\jk2.properties
*Far as i know the startup has executed fine.
*I then tested it by opening the URL - http://localhost:8080/
however the page showed the following:-
Connection reset by peer
Why is the URL http://localhost:8080/ not responding.
Any help id be grateful.......

I think you're not able to run tomcat propery. What you can do is that if it is tomcat version of 4.x or so search a file named start tomcat and stop tomcat they may be in your dir where you have installed tomcat or in the start menu and then run it from there then you'll see on your console window, will be some messages and it'll pause after some time don't close this window ok then again send request
http://localhost:8080/
I hope it'll work
