Installing tomcat (help)

2005-03-15 Thread brian
Below is the tomcat installation files for download and have
pasted the contents of README packaging information.

One binary is an exe, one is tar.gz, one is a zip, another is
Deployer. Which one is the installation file for windows ?

The .exe is the Tomcat Setup wizard. Is this the windows
version ?

NOTE: The tar files in this distribution use GNU tar
extensions, and must be untarred with a GNU compatible
version of tar. The version of tar on Solaris and Mac OS X
will not work with these files.

Thank you for using Tomcat!.

Although the .exe is a true Windows installer, I much prefer using the .zip 
package, especially for the installation of a new level.  It provides the 
scripts to run from a command prompt, which I find to be much easier than 
running Tomcat as a service during the shakedown and tuning phase.  Once you're 
happy with your setup, you can use the service.bat script to create a service, 
if you wish.
