No, they're in the registry. Use the tomcat5w.exe program in the bin directory to set parameters for the service. well i dont think that if you install tomcat 5.5.x on windows there is no catalina.bat anymore That's correct, the scripts were left out of the .exe installer (saving space hardly seems to be a reasonable justification), but they are in the .zip download. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

Re: Heap Size for Tomcat
my understanding is that any parameters you pass to bin/startup.bat or bin/startup.sh on the command line will be passed through to the java vm, such as mx128m or -D property=something .

Re: Heap Size for Tomcat
The official way to do it is to set a TOMCAT_OPTS or CATALINA_OPTS variable with the string that you would normally feed the VM. (like -Xms or whatever).

Re: Heap Size for Tomcat
Well, yeah except he wants to get more memory... and wouldn't setting the XXXOPTS variable set the heap size not just for startup but also shutdown? In other words, this way you could get tomcat to start with 512mb of heap, but if you call shutdown.bat/shutdown.sh, the shutdown vm grabs its own 512mb heap...

Re: Heap Size for Tomcat
Hello, is it important to use the -Xms and -Xmx with tomcat? Doesn´t he already manage the heap? When I should use this and when I should not? Thanks.

Re: Heap Size for Tomcat
i actually sent an email regarding this to the list about two weeks ago. I believe you are correct -- but I have found (only anecdotally) that the shutdown one doesn't have a negative impact, because on my platform at least (linux) -- even though the Virtual size allocated is huge, the resident set size doesn't grow any more quickly than it actually should (apparently at least, again I've only experimented with this on Linux). cheers fillup On 5/16/02 4:46 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well, yeah except he wants to get more memory... and wouldn't setting the XXXOPTS variable set the heap size not just for startup but also shutdown?

So the correct solution is to modify the startup/shutdown command line or to setup TOMCAT_OPTS/CATALINA_OPTS? Thanks again for the replies!

Re: Heap Size for Tomcat
i guess it's a matter of opinion, although i've personally never fed options to startup.sh, so I can't speak for that. What **i** do is in startup.sh, that's where I set JAVA_HOME, TOMCAT_HOME, and TOMCAT_OPTS. That way I don't have to worry about user environment variables. YMMV. cheers fillup On 5/16/02 6:45 PM, Jacob Hookom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So the correct solution is to modify the startup/shutdown command line or to setup TOMCAT_OPTS/CATALINA_OPTS?
