HFEJB server startup issue

[Donna Ashbaugh]

Hello folks,

I am past my compile problems in HFEJB chapter 1 and now trying
to start the server.... j2ee -verbose command.
It seems to begin but stops and sits after it
displays "J2EE server listen port: 1050" .... it never
prints anything else and never shows line "J2EE server startup complete".

Could my environment vars be set wrong? I am running J2SDK1.4.0
with this J2sdkee1.3.1. Here are my settings:
J2EE_HOME c:\j2sdkee1.3.1
JAVA_HOME c:\j2sdk1.4.0_02
CLASSPATH c:\j2sdkee1.3.1\lib\j2ee.jar
PATH c:\j2sdkee1.3.1\bin

Also, I have a Java Programming Text by Y. Danial Liang and he mentions
you can only have one Java SDK bin directory in PATH variable at a
time and those following the first are just ignored. Could this
be impacting me?

Thanks again!!! Still hoping to get through this first chapter in HFEJB
by this weekend - learning alot in this process.

Two things I can think about
1. Check status of ports using following command
netstat -an
and see if anyother application is running on port.

2. I guess you need to have same version of j2ee and jsdk i.e. 1.3
