So you meant after I fired up the Tomcat 7 then change the
environment variables for the version 6 and startup there too?
Yes, you can do that, but...
CATALINA_HOME could set to version 7 and CATALINA_BASE set to
version 6 OK?
No, CATALINA_BASE has to agree with CATALINA_HOME's configuration. So
you can't for example create a setup under /opt/tomcats/mywebapp/ and
then launch with CATALINA_BASE=/opt/tomcats/mywebapp/ under both
Tomcat 6 and Tomcat 7. The reason is that server.xml usually contains
certain things that are version-specific.
But, if you want to deply the same web application to Tomcat 6 and
Tomcat 7, you could do something like this:
$ JAVA_HOME=/opt/java-7
$ CATALINA_HOME=/opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.55
$ CATALINA_BASE=/opt/tomcats/mywebapp-tc7/
$ CATALINA_HOME/startup.sh
$ JAVA_HOME=/opt/java-6
$ CATALINA_HOME=/opt/apache-tomcat-6.0.41
$ CATALINA_BASE=/opt/tomcats/mywebapp-tc6/
$ CATALINA_HOME/startup.sh
This will launch Tomcat 6 on Java 6 with your webapp configured in
mywebapp-tc6 and a similar setup with later versions for mywebapp-tc7.

Besides setting for the 2 different ports, how do deal with
the Environment Variables of Path, CATALINA_HOME? They are

You can do anything you want, here.
CATALINA_HOME specifies where the Tomcat installation is.
CATALINA_BASE specifies where your "local" deployment goes: this
allows you to use a single CATALINA_HOME with multiple Tomcat
instances running with separate configurations (those with
different CATALINA_BASEs). JAVA_HOME specifies the JVM to use.
You can set the above environment variables, launch Tomcat, then
set them to other values and launch another instance of Tomcat. You
can change your JVM, Tomcat version, etc. whenever you want. Once
the JVM is launched, that process is independent of the shell you
used to launch it.
On our development servers, we have multiple developers with
multiple per-webapp JVMs running all off the same CATALINA_HOME
under different JVMs. All you have to worry about is the port
settings in each CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml.
Hope that helps, -chris
The subject says "on the same pc".
Now that is not a guarantee that we are talking about Windows here, but at least a strong
suspicion.
In such a case, there is the question of whether this relates to running Tomcat as a
Windows Service, or in a command window, or both.
So this may all be a bit more complicated than meets the eye.

Hello experts,
For development purpose, I wonder if I could install
and run Tomcat 6 and 7 the same time on my same
development box?
You probably also want to use 2 different ports here :
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN"> (see
conf/server.xml)
