  The two versions of tomcat6w.exe are identical.
 
  Is this correct?
 
 That is correct.  The tomcat6w.exe program does not access the JVM, so it
 need not match the JVM's execution mode.

Thanks. Is that a change from 6.0.20?

No idea - that's almost two years old.  Take a look in the archives.

from Commons Daemon.  The files are from Commons Daemon, prunsrv and
prunmgr respectively.

6.0.20 is old, as Charles noted. I do not remember exactly as well.

Best regards,

Not as far as I know. tomcat5/6/7w.exe is a Windows GUI program which only accesses the 
Registry, to set/modify values in it. So for this program, the type of the JVM (32/64-bit) 
doesn't matter, as it never interacts with it.


These Registry values are later read by the tomcat5/6/7.exe program, and used as 
parameters for itself and to set options for the JVM which this program starts and runs, 
as a wrapper.  So for this second program, the type of JVM matters very much, and must 
match the type of the wrapper.


I mention 5/6/7 above to stress that the above has been true since at least 
Tomcat 5.

For what it's worth :
I just added a FAQ entry on this topic, to provide somewhere to send to for a range of 
similar questions.

I am in an environment where I deploy tomcat via a script.  Rather than
keep two entire copies of Tomcat for 32- and 64-bit systems I have the
complete 32-bit download plus the 64-bit tomcat6*.exe files.  I'm
upgrading from 6.0.20 to 6.0.35 and my usual procedure is to diff the
32- and 64-bit versions, which in the past has found only those
differences (and tcnative-1.dll).  This time, when diffing
apache-tomcat-6.0.35-windows-x64 with apache-tomcat-6.0.35-windows-x86,
I get only tomcat6.exe as different.  The two versions of tomcat6w.exe
are identical.

Is this correct?

Yes.
