I've found with the Windows service installer that I've never needed the *.bat files that come with the zip file. However, one thing I'm not sure about is if the WSI has a -silent mode. It would be great if it did. It really would help out in scripting the install as part of another install, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
