I use Tomcat 3.3 with both IIS 5.0 and Apache 1.3.20
Reasoning: pure and simple, the downloadable tomcat 4.0.1 .exe install fails
as soon as it has finished verifying the file saying that there is no JDK.
It the dies, and quits.
I run Java2 SDK 1.4.0-beta3, and had to modify the tomcat.bat file (it had
commands like %java%
%tomcat_opts% -Dsome.param=something -Djava.somethingelse=somevalue
%tomcat_class% %1 %2 ... %9 - which translated to
java -dSome.param=something -Djava.somethingelse=somevalue
org.apache.jakarta.tomcat.WhateverTheClassNameIs ... which didn't work :-),
java.exe exited with a "help with commandline" type thing... so a quick move
the -D{param}={value} things to the end fixed it all.

I personally find Tomcat4.x easier to set up. I am using it in a development
environment, debugging with JBuilder5, and using Cocoon2rc2. It has better
support for contexts and .war files among other things... I have had no
problems, although I am not in a live commercial environment...

Subject: Re: Tomcat 3.x vs. Tomcat 4.x?
I would like some one to give some more input on this question I have
received cross references on the same topic... some people say it is better
to use Tomcat 3.x and other say Tomcat 4.x... The only reason I have heard
in favour of tomcat 3.x is because it has been better revised and Tomcat 4.x
is still too new???
Any comments would be appreciated. Especially from anyone who has been using
Tomcat for a while.
