Starting Tomcat as a Windows Service

[m nevetha]

Hi All,

I have installed Tomcat in 2 ways.

1. Unzipped a tomcat zip file to Apache folder.
2. Installed using an exe file.

I have a war file that is deployed in webapps folder(in both installations).
When I start the tomcat server from the installation 1 my application works well.
But when i try to start the tomcat server from installation 2, and i start my application by giving the url, it refers to a excel file and gives the following error

  

Error in ReadExcel Exception
java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\webapps\flash_report\files\access_rights.xls (The system cannot find the path specified)
