Subject: Regarding tomcat installation
Hi ,
I want to install tomcat 5.5 in my home PC. Which distribution should i
download from apache website , as there are many versions available. I
downloade windows installer service , but am not able to start , stop the
server as there is no batch file available in that version. It meant i
have
to run it as a service everytime. Also tell me how to configure my each
applications to differnt ports for example (app1 - 8080, app2 - 9080,
app3 -
9081) etc using tomcat 5.5. What exactly is binary distribution how to go
about installing it. Reply me ASAP. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Arun...
For some strange reason, I've also noticed that some of the later installer
versions are missing the script files.
In theory all you should need is the EXE version and you done.
If the script are missing, download the zip file (same version) as well, and
copy all the stuff in the bin to your installation... you'll get your
scripts.
ZIP files in theory run anywhere.
EXE files in theory, should be easy to install on windows.
The later versions of 5.5.25 are already well tried and tested and should
work well.
The 6 versions are a little newer, and under development, but in theory
should be stable, except for weird things like missing script files ;)
Your idea of ports is wrong, all the applications run on the same port of
your choosing, normally port 8080 when testing and port 80 when in
production.
A browser by default uses port 80, so having a million apps on a million
ports would drive your users nuts ;)
The applications are separated by a context /YourAppName etc.
When you get going type localhost:8080 into your browsr and play with the
samples and noting the URI of the various applications...
