Re: Silent install of Tomcat on Windows?
Mike Kellstrand schrieb: I've poked around a bit, but could find any info on this ... The standard Tomcat installer for Windows asks a number of questions during the install. Are there command-line parameters or any other way to invoke the process from a batch file with all the required settings (like install dir, and to install as a service) so it could be an unattended install? The purpose is that I would like to bundle up Tomcat, Java, my webapps, and some other things into a nice installer. I can certainly just invoke the Tomcat installer from the main installer, but it would be nice for the user not to have to answer install questions that could be pre-configured. Thanks, Mike Why don't you just use the zip archive and unpack it silently into the desired target directory?

How about the window that pops up with a list of options that you can check or uncheck? Most interesting to me is the Install as a service option. Is there a command I can run from the command prompt to install it as a service after I unzip the files into a dir?

Actually, this was recently discussed on the list. See.. http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-tomcat-catalina/catalina/src/bin/service.bat Also, I've noticed a couple of issues with that version, so here's the version I use (attached inside a zip file). I've included both the latest unmodified 1.3 version and my updated version which should fix things such as JSP compilation not working because tools.jar isn't added to the classpath and a couple other things I forget. There are also simple usage instructions (copied from an earlier message on the list).
