Unable to start Tomcat service

Hi! All

I am unable to start tomcat service.

The error in Tomcat Logs is -

Please follow the below steps:

  • Check the java version installed on the machine. Perform java -version on cmd to check

  • Check the JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME environment variable are pointing to the correct path or not

  • Double click on the tomcat9w.exe file from apache-tomcat/bin location

  • Click on the JAVA tab and Check the Use Default option for the Java Virtual Machine option.

  • Now start the tomcat service
