[opencms-dev] Re: Newbie Install Bug Redux - SOLVED

[Tim Pascal]

As I suspected, the problem was with environment variable setup for Tomcat.
I set the following environment variables in Windows (My Computer) -
Properties - Advanced - Environment Variables:

JAVA_HOME=c:\java
CATALINA_HOME=c:\tomcat
TOMCAT_HOME=c:\tomcat
CATALINA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1

I added the TOMCAT_HOME based on something I read at the apache.org site.
Not sure why this works now but I'm not all that concerned - the opencms
setup wizard is running (woo hoo!).
