Update - the problem I had with installing the second service is that I was first using a dash (-) in the name, and then an underscore (_) both of which were giving a strange error. Then, I hadn't realized that you can only have one port 80 per NIC so that was obviously causing problems for a while.
So, I got the second service installed and I changed the "configure" start menu item to point to the new service. All the directories were correctly pointing to the new install directory (and a new registry entry was created for the new Tomcat service). Things seems to be working fine now. --- footh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks, I already read that but didn't quite > understand how I could use that information for my > setup. > > First off, I want to run Tomcat as a service and > that > seems to talk about running multiple instances with > the startup script. > > Second, item number 4 more or less says for multiple > instances "you can use CATALINA_BASE" as an argument > but doesn't really explain CATALINA_BASE.
