Re: JRE_HOME vs JAVA_HOME
I am not a windoze guru but I strongly doubt you will need either for
tomcat to run. I am pretty sure it will pick up the default jvm from the
registry. The only time you'd want to get specific is if you are running
multiple java versions and you need to specify which one to use.
