How to run setup multiple instances of Tomcat 4 on Windows 2000 since tomcat runs as a service?
Thanks, Jack Li -----Original Message----- From: Turner, John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 8:58 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: Multiple Tomcats on one server You can run multiple instances of tomcat on one server, no problem. I have a production server that has 8 instances of tomcat (3.x) running at the moment, I'm sure other people have done it with more. "instance" is not equal to "installation". Tomcat is only installed once, but on startup, using different server.xml (like server-one.xml, server-two.xml, etc) you can run many instances, each on it's own port. In each server.xml, make appropriate changes to things like the Context container, and then for each instance you want a startup script or in your case a .bat file that changes CLASSPATH appropriately and calls tomcat with a pointer to the appropriate server.xml file. I don't use tomcat on Windows, so I can't help you with specifics, but on a UN*X it's definitely something that can be done.

Does it require just changing the environment variable for the dos window tomcat is started in and changing the port numbers that tomcat will listen for requests and sutdown signals on or is it more than that. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Nathan. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
