Does this support multiple side-by-side Tomcat-based services? I have a client who runs our product on Windows (we usually run it on Linux) and there are 2-4 separate Tomcat-based services on each node, so they have "Tomcat 8.5.x for FOO", "Tomcat 8.5.x for BAR", etc. in their service descriptions. Can they use your installer to upgrade just one of those with a new Tomcat version? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - https://www.enigmail.net/ iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEMmKgYcQvxMe7tcJcHPApP6U8pFgFAl8p2qwACgkQHPApP6U8 pFizrBAAxlI/lvrLg97BolT1t15kn3tCs2UCYnK1grl1tCrh+6ufhpMHmOVleggr VBAZrXIV3b9i96GrB7Gi+XHgJ9iSS0I2/AAnghe6Qb9aHEiAnNKjWv+WhFzTTp67 I9v2sS50QEjX3AEUqN/3fH3+AG+ZMFhkChKalWW22Lm/TJUBqXyeNsApbzaKRAwG cx30a/t6NPgVXzh4xRx3Bk1JIPA23kjXG40gdLnQg3Lchd2Nx3Hjqlk2C2ZGtNlq ejrnYyj5Kz2715MAWQBJRo/UxEx2SfpEI/KWuwgh5KFCURFyM4gfYCGGaEqIlErx dMpeZ2e2krLg7kTz3mbly7BwBa1WG2XqeHGPCV4XjDKqy2MkMgQjbbjZHal1PyBE FpkX4VKnfEWwbSO/89mgsVwxwrVLnKvZrLI57QI0DvtT6ssB5dyVlTGP7XY4bHCo s6beEsgnSmtJxm8j9j/vrH1zkD1fCUzjH8bOxNB098XhsDK/DZKs0q5IDycaTI0v z6FauOTVoVk0Z8SB0j6FK9VMGKoquI9/JInFh2NozBX0M9fSL9hOYrulhQpAEMw9 HbMfno2cPAnwXYraA/N/G1xEITV2jX7xtNP0UlZNgQGBMHku27xe+eHT4uEGZVrP 1T0EoPlmm++y3tLRwLTIZ13r/6fMnvNZCNpjNvF8apuCkJfj5aQ= =dw1h -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
