It is possible to run them side-by-side in two different Tomcat instances under different JVMs. For example, on Gentoo Linux I've installed both the OpenJDK 8 and 11 "slots", as well as Tomcat 7 and 8.5 slots. The Tomcat startup script can be configured as to which JVM to use, so I can have a Tomcat 7 running on JDK 8 and a Tomcat 8.5 (on different ports, of course!) running on JDK 11. The Gentoo Tomcat packages also include a tool to set up multiple instances of the same slot, and I could have done it that way. Your OS may provide similar facilities. Or you can rig up multiple Tomcat instances yourself. -- Mark H. Wood Lead Technology Analyst University Library Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis 755 W.
