RE: startup parameters in tomcat on windows 2000 server
Tomcat uses commons daemon to run as a service. tomcat5w.exe is really prunmgr.exe and tomcat5.exe is prunsrv.exe Instructions for configuring prunmgr.exe and prunsrv.exe are here: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/daemon/procrun.html Robert The information contained in this message is intended only for the recipient, and may be a confidential attorney-client communication or may otherwise be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.

Re: Startup parameters
Set CATALINA_OPTS = -Xmx256 or whatever you want. Either set it in your environment or at the top of catalina.bat (that's what I do).

RE: Startup parameters
Take a look at the following site. It gives you a feeler of how to do it. Once you run the batch file, it updates the Win2000 registry entries for you. From there you can play with it. http://www.mattkelli.com/tech/tomcat/ntservice.htm But the only catch running tomcat as service with the start up parameters is -verbose:gc does not print the Garbage collection entries in either stdout or stderr. I have'nt figured out where it is printing yet.

Re: Startup parameters
Put the following in your catalaina.bat, I have this set just underneath where CATALINA_BASE, JAVA_HOME, and CATALINA)HOME are set. CATALINA_OPTS=-server -Xmx512m -Xms128m regards, Dave PS all startup parameters get put in under CATALINA_OPTS - Original Message - From: Nathan McMinn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tomcat Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, January 18, 2003 9:22 AM Subject: Startup parameters OK, one quick question that I'm sure anybody here but me can answer.

RE: Startup parameters
Setting the parameters in Catalina.bat would not work if you run Tomcat as a service since you service is calling tomcat.exe directly and not startup.bat or Catalina.bat. But to test out before you start the service you can put the values in CATALINA_OPTS = -Xms128m -Xmx258 etc and run Catalina.bat. You can also set the values as Environment Variables and forget about changing it in Catalina.bat To Run it as service and with the parameters follow the link http://www.mattkelli.com/tech/tomcat/ntservice.htm Hope this helps Hari -Original Message- From: Nathan McMinn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 17, 2003 5:22 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Startup parameters OK, one quick question that I'm sure anybody here but me can answer.

Re: Startup parameters
Wow, Thanks folks. On a slightly different note, has anyone had any luck using a PCI SSL accelerator card with Tomcat 4.0.6 in a standalone configuration? - Original Message - From: Hari Venkatesan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tomcat Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 17, 2003 4:37 PM Subject: RE: Startup parameters Setting the parameters in Catalina.bat would not work if you run Tomcat as a service since you service is calling tomcat.exe directly and not startup.bat or Catalina.bat.
