The information is fairly limited on how to get things to work with Tomcat running as a service.
What I have learnt so far is : 1) CATALINA_OPTS environment variable allows you to pass options to the JVM 2) The Jakarta Commons project hosts the Daemon that does the work of running Tomcat as a service http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/daemon I have yet to look into, 1) Automating start/stop with Ant in conjunciton with recompiling webapps (Alternately reloading the webapps, although Tomcat doesnt seem to survive webapp exceptions very well) 2) Making the Daemon show up in Apache Monitor (part of httpd) 3) Configuring Tomcat with service parameters (or ini file) instead of CATALINA_OPTS Henrik ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert Mark Bram" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2003 2:21 PM Subject: RE: Tomcat as a service > Hi Yoav Shapira, > > > >3) If I don't have Tomcat as a service, how can I get it running as a > > >service? > > > > > >4) Where is all of this documented?
