Did it work?


Our project is using OpenJDK version: 1.8.0_242, Microsoft
Framework 4.0.0 running TR/ OneSource Indirect Tax Determination

That sounds like a fun environment.


Ivanti patch tool has overlayed Tomcat service running on the D
drive, on the C drive including war files and registry settings.
Sounds great. Is that what it's supposed to do? We don't know anything 
about Ivanti.



Is there any way to manual install patches to keep Tomcat version
8.5.82 current on the D drive which is running Catalina under Windows
2019 Server.
The Apache Tomcat project periodically produces new versions of 
supported versions of Apache Tomcat. All 4 currently-supported major 
versions (8.5, 9.0, 10.0, and 10.1) receive roughly monthly patch releases.


The Apache Tomcat team does not distribute actual patches. Instead, we 
release new versions of the complete package. It should be easy to stay 
up-to-date if you are comfortable with Apache Tomcat. Simply download 
and install the update whenever it becomes available.


Here are two resources you might want to refer to:

https://tomcat.apache.org/presentations.html#latest-split-installation

https://github.com/Bill-Stewart/ApacheTomcatSetup

Generally, releases within the same major version (e.g. 8.5.x) are all 
compatible, but READ THE CHANGELOG 
(https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/changelog.html) to see if 
anything might affect your environment. You are upgrading past a LOT of 
revisions, so you will haev to do a lot of reading.


Also read the MIGRATION GUIDE 
(https://tomcat.apache.org/migration.html), especially the "Notable 
Changes" section for your version(s).



Do I need capture logs which one's and capture Tomcat access
log
, or threadumps?
You only need to do such things if you care to do so. Thread dumps are 
only useful if you are experiencing a problem. Logs can either be useful 
or not, depending on your needs.



Next steps to download Tomcat manual installation on DEV
environment? Next step to download Apache Tomcat(r) - Apache Tomcat 8
Software Downloads
windows-x64.zip?
Yes, that's the right place to get the latest ZIP distribution of Apache 
Tomcat.

Yes, that's a good place to get started.

You might have more luck on sites specific to Ivanti or OneSource?
