1. Note that those names are case sensitive so you want CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME
2. Run the startup.bat from a Command Prompt window - NOT by clicking on it.
3. If a window opens and then immediately closes, change the line in startup.bat
call "%EXECUTABLE%" start %CMD_LINE_ARGS%
to
call "%EXECUTABLE%" run %CMD_LINE_ARGS%
This will cause the catalina.bat to continue in the open window. Hopefully an error message that makes sense will be preserved.
4. If you still can't figure it out, comment out the @echo off line at the start of catalina.bat to get a full listing.
