I don't know of any specific online documentation to point you to, but you basically set CATALINA_HOME to a directory that contains a "conf/web.xml", "conf/server.xml" and a "webapps" directory (usually containing your webapp WAR files or just the whole, expanded webapp) and run tomcat.sh (or tomcat.bat) from the real installation. Tomcat uses the installation directory for all the normal stuff like libraries and all that, and it uses the configuration in the directory specified as CATALINA_HOME for everything else. So, you can have one binary installation and several instances running off of it, all with differing configurations. I'm sure there /is/ documentation out there for this, I just don't remember reading it ;) > One last question, I recently tried to use Apache 2.2.3, and found > that mod_jk wouldn't compile against it, has anyone had similar > issues? I'm happy with Apache 2.0, but thought I'd ask. I dunno. A buddy of mine uses 2.2.0 with no problem. Perhaps search the list for recent similar problems, and start a new thread if you can't find the solution? -chris
