I just downloaded Apache Tomcat 4.1.2.4. But when I run it, i get the
follwing. What's the deal, can any one help? ...damn opensource.

If you don't like open source, why not *buy* something instead of
complaining at what you have got for free? Then, when it doesn't work, you
can pay for support instead of asking for it for free.

Hey,

I think the last time I had that come up I had either added an extra <%, or
forgotten to put in an %> in the .jsp file.

Hope that helps out.

Apache Tomcat/4.1.24

I get the same message whenever Tomcat is run as a Windows Service.
However when the services is disabled and the Startup batch file is
used then I do not get the error.

I need to have Tomcat as a service. Any Suggestions?
