Can not start RCS on Windows XP Profesional

I just installed the Requirements Composer Server and I need to configure it. So I already followed this step:

1. Click Start > All Programs > IBM Rational Requirements Composer Server 2.0 > Start IBM Rational Requirements Composer 2.0 Server.
But... The Tomcat command window does not appear. No message "INFO: Server startup in # ms". Nada... What can be wrong?

Normally a second Tomcat window opens if the server starts successfully.

My best guess to what's happening is that you have insufficient memory.
While I don't recommend running this way, what you could at least try is the following:

- edit the file C:\Program Files\IBM\RRCS20\server\server.startup.bat
- locate the line which sets JAVA_OPTS
- lower the value for the argument -xmx(to something like 700M)

Again, I do NOT recommend running the server in a constrained memory environment, but this might at least indicate if that's the problem.
