Restart Tomcat via command prompt: Access is denied

I know that I can either use

sc start Tomcat6

or

net start Tomcat6

to start the tomcat service, however I get an error "Access is denied". How can I achieve restarting the tomcat service via command prompt and overcoming the error? Thanks

If you are on Windows Server 2008 or above (R2), you need to run your command prompt as administrator. Create a desktop shortcut to "cmd" or c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe. Then right-click the shortcut and "run as administrator".
