Bug 44764

I am currently on a customer site, where they are installing onto a brand new server, they had the JDK 6 update 5 on the server, having never had any previous versions of Java on the server.
 
They had not installed Apache Tomcat, so I installed 5.5.26 but it would not start with an error message 
 
[2008-04-07 10:48:39] [986  prunsrv.c] [error] Failed creating java C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_05\bin\client\jvm.dll

I could find no reason why this should have failed, and no mention of any incompatibilities on the internet.
 
HOWEVER, I then uninstalled the JDK 6u5 and installed JRE 1.5 instead. Of course I had to re-install Apache Tomcat 5.5.26 (so that it knew about the new Java installation) and it worked perfectly!
 
I then tried to go back and uninstalled both products, and reinstalled JDK 6u5 and Apache Tomcat 5.5.26 on top of it, and sure enough I got the same errors and it would not start up.
