Will, I run Tomcat as a window's service. My understanding is that when you run Tomcat as a window's service, setting an env var in the Tomcat service options that also exists as part of windows will supersede the windows var.
As long as you have it set somewhere before the service needs the var it doesn't matter where it is set. If you are using multiple java homes, then it becomes important where it set, otherwise I don't think it matters, Bryan Rood IT Manager Quantros Inc.

Previously I was using windows env variables to set the java home and catalina home paths. In version 5.5 do I still need to use env variables or can I use the Tomcat service configuration "Java" options?
