I had a simmilar problem after installing a java update, but JAVA_HOME was set correctly. If you run tomcat as a service, you might have to right click on the tomcat icon and open java tab and change java virtual machine path or just set "use default".

If I were to "guess" I would say that the JAVA_HOME is not set. But to confirm :
Can you go the command line, make sure that JAVA_HOME is set correctly, startup tomcat (from command line) ? If you run into errors, please send the text output.

Try to run "startup.bat" to start a tomcat instance.

Go to your/path/tomcat and execute script catalina_start.bat .I had the same issue and this worked for me (though I installed Tomcat as a part of XAMPP package)
